Sam Darnold currently plays for the Seattle Seahawks. He signed a three-year, $100.5 million contract with the Seahawks in March 2025 after a breakout season with the Minnesota Vikings in 2024, where he earned Pro Bowl honors and led the team to a playoff appearance. This contract marks his move after previously playing for the Jets, Panthers, 49ers, and Vikings in his NFL career. The deal with the Seahawks is structured so they could part ways with him after one season if desired.
