Seahawks
Seahawks GM John Schneider is excited to have QB Drew Lock back on the team next season and points out Lock got “really sick” early on in 2021 when he was competing for a starting role.
โDrew Lock, man, letโs go,โ Schneider said, via SeahawksWire. โHeโs coming back. What an awesome guy. Everything heโs been through โ last year we talked about it a bunch. Coming here, competing with Geno (Smith), getting COVID, really bad timing for him. Game 2 was going to be his game against Chicago, but then he got really sick, then he still didnโt have his legs against Dallas. So Iโm just really excited. Really happy for him.โ
Schneider thinks Lock and Geno Smith have shown great camaraderie.
โBoth those guys were awesome with pushing each other and then the support that they showed,โ Schneider said. โGenoโs scrimmage and Drewโs scrimmage (in training camp), Drew had a little bit more success that day โ I forget exactly how it happened โ but Geno was amazing afterward. Heโs like, โHey, look, you know, Iโm here for Drew, and if heโs the guy, Iโm here to support him.โโ
