Monday night at Lumen Field the Seattle Seahawks will host the Philadelphia Eagles with both teams potentially starting their backup quarterbacks.
On the Eagles side, starter Jalen Hurts has been battling an illness, which could lead to Philadelphia starting Marcus Mariota. For the Seahawks, Geno Smith suffered a groin injury in practice ahead of the matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, and that led to the first start of Drew Lock’s time in Seattle.
Now, with injury issues potentially sidelining Smith and strong safety Jamal Adams, the Seahawks have elevated quarterback Sean Mannion and safety Ty Okada from the practice squad.
