From the article

Darnold's contract is up in 2027, so he could play out the rest of his deal and have another 'prove-it' moment, possibly with a different offensive coordinator (again). Alternatively, John Schneider pivots and starts looking for his next guy, whether that's believing in Year 3 Jalen Milroe, re-signing Lock to essentially recreate the Darnold magic with someone else, trading for a quarterback, or drafting one.

Darnold's 2027 free agency uncertain; Seahawks may seek QB alternatives.

With his contract expiring in 2027, Darnold faces an uncertain future in Seattle; barring an amazing second half of the 2026 season, the Seahawks may pivot away from him entirely, with general manager John Schneider potentially exploring alternatives including Year 3 Jalen Milroe, re-signing Drew Lock, trading for a quarterback, or drafting a new starter.
