description

Few things can be considered “absolute” in the unpredictable-as-can-be NFL, but in 2025, the football world has learned of one thing that seemingly can be: wherever Sam Darnold has gone recently, victories tend to follow. Author of back-to-back 14-win seasons — No. 1 leaguewide since 2024 — Seattle’s star helped coordinate one of that bunch’s most memorable, hitting his tight end on a 26-yard play-action score, a touchdown that helped guide a seemingly-improbable 16-point fourth quarter comeback. A signature, 38-37 overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams proved paramount in the Seahawks eventually clinching the NFC’s No. 1 seed. On Dec. 18, 2025, Darnold’s contributions were standout, as he tossed for 270 yards (on 22-of-34) and two touchdowns.
