Sam Darnold has signed a lucrative three-year, $110.5 million contract with the Seattle Seahawks, including $55 million guaranteed. After a breakout season with the Minnesota Vikings, where he showcased impressive stats and earned a Pro Bowl invitation, Darnold will take over as the starter, replacing Geno Smith. His tenure with the Vikings provided him with a platform to rebuild his reputation after previous struggles in the NFL, but he did end the season on a low note. Darnold’s past experiences with the Jets and Panthers set the stage for this critical opportunity with Seattle.
Darnold posted impressive numbers with the Vikings last season, throwing for 4,319 yards and 35 touchdowns, and earning a Pro Bowl selection.
Despite a promising season leading to a Pro Bowl, Darnold struggled in the final stretch of the season, facing criticism for poor performances.
