Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is officially active for Saturday's divisional-round game against the San Francisco 49ers, the team announced.
Darnold was listed as questionable for the matchup after being added to the injury report earlier this week due to an oblique issue.
The Seahawks passer didn't go through his usual pregame routine Saturday because of the injury. He wasn't seen on the field before the contest, according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times.
Darnold helped Seattle claim the NFC's No. 1 seed by passing for 25 touchdowns in his first season with the team.
The Seahawks' other options at the position are backup Drew Lock and emergency quarterback Jalen Milroe.
