Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He "continues to get better," HC Mike Macdonald said, but is expected to be limited throughout the week. "He's not going to be a full-go the whole week, so we have a plan; we're going to work through it, see how the day goes and then we'll kind of take it day by day and take it to tomorrow," Macdonald said Wednesday. "But he won't be throwing every ball every play for the whole week, no." Darnold didn't need to do much in last week's easy win over the 49ers, but he completed 71% of his 17 passes at 7.3 yards per attempt. He's fully expected to start Sunday's NFC Championship vs. the Rams.
