Seahawks’ Gamble on Sam Darnold: Is This the Make-or-Break Moment for Their Franchise?
This after the NFC West team reached agreement with Darnold on Monday on a reported three-year, $100.5 million free agent contract, including $55 million in guaranteed money.
The question is, will the payoff come on the field with Darnold, whom CBS Sports ranked as the best available quarterback this offseason in a group that also included Aaron Rogers, Kirk Cousins, Justin Fields and Russell Wilson?
In turning to Darnold, who was a first-time Pro Bowl selection in his only season with the Minnesota Vikings in 2024, the Seahawks have replaced three-year starter Geno Smith, whoâs been traded to the Las Vegas Raiders. Darnold, who turns 28 in June, joins his fifth different franchise as he heads into his eighth NFL season.
