Seattle Seahawks’ Surprising Star: How Sam Darnold Is Quietly Shaking Up the NFL in 2025
They are pretty much the same guy, but Darnold is almost seven years younger. The USC Trojan was terrible in his first six NFL seasons, and Geno didn’t become a full-time starter until his ninth season in the league. Both played well on their fourth team, and both went to their fifth team this offseason.ÂÂ
Before becoming a full-time starter, Smith threw more interceptions than touchdowns and had a 13-21 record as a starter (38.2% winning rate). Darnold wasn’t much better before going to Minnesota last year. He had a 63/56 TD/INT rate and a 21-35 record as a starter (37.5% winning rate). All this to say, “Why can’t Darnold be a legit franchise quarterback if Geno can”?ÂÂ
