Lock (forearm) won't carry an injury designation into Thursday night's matchup with Denver, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Lock remained limited at practice for the third straight day Friday as he continues to deal with a right forearm injury, but the quarterback will be good to go for Week 6. The 29-year-old will operate in his typical role as the team's primary backup behind starting quarterback Sam Darnold on Thursday night versus the Broncos.
The Seahawks listed Lock (forearm) as a limited practice participant on Tuesday's estimated report, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Lock is working through a right forearm injury, and Wednesday's practice report will provide clarity on his status for Thursday night's road game against the Broncos. Jalen Milroe would step up as Seattle's backup QB behind Sam Darnold if Lock is not cleared to play against Denver.

Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.
It's unclear when Lock picked up the injury, given that he did not play a single snap during Sunday's 32-29 loss to San Francisco. He's got two more chances to increase his practice participation, but if he cannot play against the Broncos on Thursday, then Jalen Milroe would serve as the Seahawks' backup quarterback behind Sam Darnold.

Lock could be relegated to the backup role as soon as Week 3, as Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said after Wednesday's practice that Sam Darnold is "on a good track" to play Sunday against the Commanders, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com.
Darnold was believed to be facing a multi-week recovery process when he exited the season opener with what was later diagnosed as a glute injury, but he has been progressing faster than expected. If Darnold is handed the reins to the offense for Week 3, Lock will have made just one start during Darnold's absence. Lock held the fort admirably, leading Seattle to a comeback win over the Patriots after Darnold's injury in Week 1 before beating the Cardinals as the starter in Week 2.
