What happened: Mike Macdonald said Seattle has no plans to place Darnold on injured reserve after ruling him out for Week 2 against Arizona. The move keeps the quarterback on the active roster heading into Sunday.

Why it matters: Leaving Darnold off IR gives Seattle flexibility after Darnold was previously projected to miss 4-6 weeks with a hip injury. An injured-reserve move would require a minimum four-game absence under NFL rules.

What to watch: Seattle's next practice reports will show whether the club keeps carrying Darnold on the active roster into Week 3. Any change in that approach would turn this from a one-game absence into a bigger roster decision.
