After coming through for the Seahawks in prime time, quarterback Drew Lock found another way to make a lasting impression following his heroics against the Eagles.
Lock, who was named the starter just before kickoff, stunned Monday Night Football viewers in Seattle’s 20–17 win after connecting with rookie receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba on a 29-yard dime for the go-ahead touchdown.
Seattle’s defense would put the game away with an interception on the ensuing drive, but it was Lock’s clutch effort that stole the show. After the game, an emotional Lock would further capture America’s attention with a heartfelt interview reflecting on the win.
