Geno active, but Seahawks start Lock at QB on MNF vs. Eagles

The Seattle Seahawks are starting quarterback Drew Lock in Monday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Starter Geno Smith was active for the matchup after missing last week's loss to the San Francisco 49ers due to a groin injury. However, he wasn't in uniform to start the game, according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times. The 33-year-old was originally a game-time decision after being a limited participant at practice this week.

Though Seattle didn't announce a starter pregame, Lock took every first-team snap during warmups Monday. The team also activated Sean Mannion from the practice squad.

Smith, a Pro Bowler last season, completed 64.4% of his passes to go along with 2,918 yards and 15 touchdowns against nine interceptions in 12 starts this season.

Lock completed 22 of 31 pass attempts for 269 yards and two TDs to two picks in his first start this season last week.

The Seahawks, who'll try to snap a four-game skid versus Philadelphia, ruled out rookie cornerback Devon Witherspoon and safety Jamal Adams in Week 15. Witherspoon is dealing with a hip injury, while Adams has a knee ailment.
