During the first quarter of Wednesday’s game against the New England Patriots, Sam Darnold went to the blue medical tent. The Super Bowl-winning quarterback limped to the sidelines after getting sacked on third down, believed to have suffered a hip injury.

Drew Lock is now in at quarterback as Darnold went to the locker room for x-rays.

Prior to exiting, Darnold completed one of two passes for 13 yards.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
