What happened: Sam Darnold is off the injury report and will play Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Head coach Mike Macdonald announced the decision, clearing the quarterback for action.

Why it matters: The Seahawks get their starting quarterback back as they prepare for the matchup. Seattle faces a Washington team that is also adjusting its offense, with Marcus Mariota starting in place of the injured Jayden Daniels.

What to watch: The two teams meet on Sunday.
