The Seattle Seahawks earned a 13-10 Week 1 victory over the New England Patriots at Lumen Field, with Drew Lock stepping up after Sam Darnold left the game with a right hip injury on the opening possession. Lock threw a 45-yard touchdown pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the fourth quarter, tying the game before Jason Myers kicked the go-ahead field goal. The Seahawks' defense forced three interceptions, including a crucial pick-six by Josh Jobe in the end zone as New England attempted a tying field goal.

Darnold underwent a CT scan at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, with initial results encouraging but inconclusive. An MRI is scheduled for Thursday to determine if there was a fracture. Lock completed 16-of-22 passes for 187 yards and one touchdown, playing well under pressure despite three false-start penalties.

For the Patriots, wide receiver A.J. Brown left the game in the third quarter with a right ankle injury, diminishing Drake Maye's top target. The win improves Seattle to 1-0, while New England falls to 0-1.
