Seahawks | Sam Darnold in elite company Wed Feb 11, 09:36 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold joined Tom Brady as the only quarterbacks in NFL history to win 14 or more games in back-to-back seasons, and Darnold is the only quarterback to win 14-plus games in his first season after changing teams, accomplishing the feat for the second year in a row in 2025.

Seahawks | Sam Darnold cashes in on Super Bowl win Mon Feb 9, 12:12 AM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold earned a $1 million incentive by winning Super Bowl LX.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com reminded readers, all year, we heard that Darnold couldn't win the big game. Now that he's won the biggest game there is, Darnold's critics will have to come up with a new excuse not to embrace him as one of the NFL's best quarterbacks -- one who's just entering his prime. In fact, sources told CBS Sports insider Jonathan Jones that if they won the Super Bowl, Seattle would consider giving Darnold a contract extension this coming offseason. If so, the million he earned Sunday won't even be the tip of the iceberg. |

Seahawks | Seattle rides defense to Super Bowl win Mon Feb 9, 12:05 AM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold completed 19 of his 38 passes for 202 yards and a touchdown and added five rushing yards in a 29-13 win over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX. RB Kenneth Walker III gained 135 yards on 27 carries and caught two passes for 26 yards, and RB George Holani chipped in six rushing yards on two carries and caught a seven-yard pass. WR Cooper Kupp finished with a team-high six receptions on 12 targets for 61 receiving yards, and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba hauled in four of his 10 targets for 27 yards. TE AJ Barner caught four passes for 54 yards and a touchdown, and WR Rashid Shaheed gained 27 yards on a pair of receptions. LB Ernest Jones led the defense with 11 tackles, including 10 solo stops, and LB Uchenna Nwosu returned an interception for a touchdown. S Julian Love also had an interception, and DT Byron Murphy II and DE Derick Hall both had two of Seattle's six sacks, and Murphy also recovered a fumble.
| Footballguys view: As ESPN's Dan Graziano wrote, "Led by defense and special teams, armed with a quarterback nobody believed in and run by a 38-year-old, second-year coach whose personality remains opaque to almost everyone outside of his building, the Seattle Seahawks kept their heads down and kept winning." And that coach, Mike Macdonald, is now the third-youngest head coach ever to win the Super Bowl -- and he did it in just his second season with the Seahawks. With Darnold heading into his second season in Seattle and MacDonald at the helm, the Seahawks' future is bright. |

Seahawks | Sam Darnold's oblique feels good Thu Feb 5, 09:51 AM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) said his oblique feels really good heading into the Super Bowl. 'It feels really good,' Darnold said Wednesday morning. 'Definitely the time off has helped a little bit. I'm always just going to take it one step at a time, do my rehab and do everything I need to do to make sure it feels great going into practice and going into the game... on Sunday.'
| Footballguys view: Neither Super Bowl quarterback is 100%, but Darnold played more than well enough against Rams to assuage any worries about his condition. We should project him the way we normally would after he got in a full practice on Thursday. |

Seahawks | Sam Darnold dealing with soreness Mon Jan 26, 02:20 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) is dealing with soreness in his oblique, but it is not believed to be a serious issue, according to head coach Mike Macdonald.
| Footballguys view: The 28-year-old Darnold earned his second straight Pro Bowl honor this campaign after recording 25 passing touchdowns and 14 interceptions in the regular season. He's gone 37-for-53 with 470 passing yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions across Seattle's two playoff games -- while playing through the oblique issue. He's all but certain to do the same against the Patriots in Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8. |

Seahawks | Seattle outlasts Rams to clinch Super Bowl spot Sun Jan 25, 10:11 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold completed 25 of his 36 passes for 346 yards and three touchdowns and gained nine rushing yards on three carries in a 31-27 win over the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game. RB Kenneth Walker III rushed 19 times for 62 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 49 yards, and RB George Holani served as the backup, rushing three times for four yards and gaining 27 yards on three receptions. Jaxon Smith-Njigba was Darnold's top target, catching 10 of his 12 targets for 153 yards and a touchdown. WR Cooper Kupp chipped in four receptions for 36 yards and a score, and WR Rashid Shaheed's lone catch went for 51 yards. TE AJ Barner finished with two catches for 13 yards, and WR Jake Bobo hauled in a 17-yard touchdown. LB Ernest Jones led the way for the defense, finishing with a team-high 8 tackles, including six solo stops. DL DeMarcus Lawrence recorded Seattle's only sack, and CB Riq Woolen broke up a pair of passes.
| Footballguys view: Though the Seahawks' vaunted defense was solid, it was the play of Darnold and Smith-Njigba that carried the day. It was fitting that Darnold starred in this one after leading Seattle to a 14-3 record and the NFC's No. 1 seed during the regular season. Still, there were questions about his big-game ability. But now, Darnold has Seattle in the biggest game of all in a season that did not begin with Super Bowl expectations. The Seahawks will face the New England Patriots in a rematch of Super Bowl XLIX. |

Seahawks | Sam Darnold had fumble issues in 2025 Sun Jan 25, 07:12 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold fumbled 11 times during the 2025 regular season, which was tied for the most in the NFL.
| Footballguys view: Darnold committed 20 total turnovers, consisting of 14 interceptions and 6 fumbles lost during the regular season. Despite this high turnover count -- leading the league in that category -- he led Seattle to the playoffs with a 67.7 percent completion rate. Darnold finished the regular season as the QB14 in total points. But his 14.3 points per game ranked 26th in the league. |

Seahawks | Sam Darnold playing through pain Sun Jan 25, 12:30 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) will start the NFC Championship Game versus the Los Angeles Rams Sunday, Jan. 25, even though he split reps at quarterback in practice during the week with QB Drew Lock because of a lingering oblique issue. He will receive a pain-killing injection and is likely to throw in the locker room as part of an altered pregame routine that will be similar to his preparation for last week's Divisional Round playoff contest versus the San Francisco 49ers.

Seahawks | Sam Darnold to be day-to-day this week Tue Jan 20, 12:04 AM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) will be day-to-day this week, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. 'Balancing making sure we get enough reps at the proper tempo, with the proper looks, you know, and getting Sam the reps he needs,' Macdonald said Monday, Jan. 19.
| Footballguys view: Darnold, who played through an oblique injury suffered in last Thursday's practice, Macdonald said there were no setbacks. "To my knowledge, he's good," Macdonald said. "He didn't make it worse or anything, but I'm sure he's sore. This is something that we're going to have to navigate the rest of the week." Macdonald said there was almost no doubt that Darnold would play, even on the day the injury happened, both because of the way he responded to the setback and because of the toughness he has shown the team this season. We'll be monitoring Darnold's progress all week. Stay tuned. |

Seahawks | Seattle cruises to NFC title game Sat Jan 17, 10:35 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold completed 12 of his 17 passes for 124 yards and a touchdown in a 41-6 win over the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round. RB Kenneth Walker III rushed 19 times for 106 yards and three touchdowns and caught three passes for 29 yards. WR Cooper Kupp caught five passes for a team-high 60 yards, and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba had three grabs for 19 yards and a score. WR Rashid Shaheed gained 27 yards on two carries, and he returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown. TE AJ Barner was not targeted, but he did have a two-yard carry. LB Ernest Jones IV had six tackles and an interception, and DL Leonard Williams and DL DeMarcus Lawrence both recorded a sack.
| Footballguys view: The Seahawks scored on the first play of the game when Rashid Shaheed return the kickoff for a score, and they were up 17-0 at the end of the first quarter. It just got worse from there for the 49ers. The Seahawks pass offense didn't have to break a sweat, so it wasn't a big statistical game for Sam Darnold, but Ken Walker dominated a banged up 49ers defense and Darnold didn't show ill effects from the oblique injury he suffered during the practice last week. The Seahawks will host the NFC title game next week. |

| Footballguys view: The Panthers defense was up to the task in Week 17, harassing Darnold and forcing two turnovers. He never got comfortable throwing downfield to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but AJ Barner came through on a couple of big plays deep in Panthers territory and that was enough on a rough day for offensive football in Charlotte. Darnold could be playing for the #1 seed next week against the 49ers. |

Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold went 20-for-30 for 249 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He also rushed for 23 yards on three carries during the game.
| Footballguys view: Darnold was sacked at the one and then intercepted trying to do too much on an extended play to open the game, but he settled down on a field goal drive at the end of the first half and then made short work of the Falcons defense in the second half. He has been too inconsistent to trust in 1QB leagues lately, but this outcome is encouraging heading into a home game against a shellshocked Colts team. |

Seahawks | Sam Darnold deadly down the field Thu Dec 4, 12:26 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold leads the NFL with 12 completions on throws of 30 or more yards down the field, and he has completed 70.6% of those throws.
| Footballguys view: Under OC Klint Kubiak, the Seahawks can go downfield effectively. That's because they set things up with running the ball from wide-zone concepts. This deceives the defense, and Darnold has been great at play-action passing. Oh yeah, having guys like Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Rashid Shaheed helps too. |

| Footballguys view: Darnold aired it out to Jaxon Smith-Njigba multiple times for big first half plays and didn't really need to do much more to beat the Titans. He'll face a tough Vikings defense next week, but still has a high floor after putting Week 11's four interception game behind him. |

Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold completed 21-of-24 passes for 330 yards, four touchdowns and one interception in Week 9 against the Washington Commanders. With a blowout score, he was rested for the second half of the fourth quarter. QB Drew Lock mopped up.
| Footballguys view: Darnold might well have had the best game of his career and certainly his best first half, one in which he completed every pass he threw for 282 yards, a perfect 158.3 rating, and four touchdowns -- tops in his career for an opening half. Seattle scored on each of its five first-half possessions and Darnold completed his first 17 passes of the night, matching Warren Moon for the franchise record. Jaxon Smith-Njigba continued to emerge as one of the league's best wideouts, but Darnold was the star. The Seahawks play Arizona in Week 10. |
