Offensive Woes Plague Seattle, Seahawks Lose to Chicago 27-11: Live Game Log

Follow along with AllSeahawks.com as we keep you up to date on Thursday night's preseason matchup between Seattle and Chicago.

We are entering the second week of the NFL Preseason, as the Seattle Seahawks welcome the Chicago Bears to Seattle. 

After a 32-25 loss in Week 1 to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Seahawks will look to bounce back in Week 2 while also getting a feel for the depth on their roster ahead of the season. 

However, what was shaping up to be an interesting quarterback battle saw a wrench thrown into the mix. Drew Lock, who was slated to start for the Seahawks against the Bears, tested positive COVID-19, causing him to miss the Week 2 matchup. 

Instead, Geno Smith will start once again and look to all but wrap up this quarterback competition before the preseason even ends. Against the Steelers Smith completed 10 of 15 passes for 101 yards, averaging 6.7 yards per attempt. 

Also missing the Week 2 matchup will be rookie running back Kenneth Walker III, who the Seahawks hope will be ready to go for their season opener as he recovers from an undisclosed procedure, per coach Pete Carroll.
