Pelissero: Drew Lock (elbow) has severe tendonitis

Key Points:

• Seahawks QB Drew Lock is dealing with severe tendonitis in his elbow but is expected to start in Week 9 against the Cardinals; he has been limited in practice but reports feeling good.
• Sam Darnold remains week-to-week with quad and rib injuries, making Lock the presumptive starter, with Jalen Milroe as a backup option if Lock's elbow worsens.
• Falcons placed RB Brian Robinson on injured reserve due to a hamstring setback, elevating Bijan Robinson to a clear lead role in the backfield.
• The Broncos and 49ers activated WRs Pat Bryant and Demarcus Robinson respectively from injured reserve, with Robinson potentially serving as a top receiver for the 49ers in Week 9.
• Vikings QB Kyler Murray is out for multiple games with a Grade 2 hamstring strain, with Carson Wentz starting, while Bills offensive linemen Dion Dawkins and Alec Anderson are questionable for Week 9, potentially impacting the run game.
• Saints released RB Kendre Miller and expect WR Jordyn Tyson to return from a hamstring injury for Week 9, which could affect the playing time of other Saints receivers.
• Rams activated EDGE Myles Garrett from injured reserve, reuniting him with Aaron Donald and bolstering their defensive line for Week 9 against the Commanders.
