Former Missouri Tigers quarterback Drew Lock put together an impressive performance Friday night for the Seattle Seahawks, earning a 151.0 passer rating against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2 of the NFL preseason.

Lock completed 10 of his 12 pass attempts for 129 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for 34 yards on two carries.

Lock is entering his first season of a second stint with the Seahawks after having spent last year with the New York Giants. He previously played for the Seahawks in both 2022 and 2023. He signed again with the team this offseason to back up Sam Darnold.

Lock had the chance to start in five games for the Giants last year, throwing for 1,071 yards, six touchdowns and five interceptions on the season.
