Look at Drew Locke. Drew Locke can make the throws that Sam Darnold can make...Because you don't have to shrink the playbook...he's been great.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Locke preserves Vikings offense; capable backup who doesn't shrink playbook.

Locke has been effective as the Vikings' backup, capable of making the same throws as starter Sam Darnold and preserving the offensive identity without requiring a playbook shrink; the source credits him with strong early-season performance and notes that his skill set allows the Vikings to maintain their bread-and-butter plays.
