Positive signalProjection

Darnold's 4,319 yards and 35 TDs in 2024 earned him a $100.5M deal, but no guaranteed money after 2025.

Darnold signed a three-year, $100.5 million deal with Seattle after an excellent 2024 with Minnesota, throwing for career highs of 4,319 yards and 35 touchdowns while averaging 3.08 seconds to throw (third-longest in NFL) and attempting 73.2% of passes after 2.5 seconds (highest rate in league). However, he has no guaranteed salary after 2025 and the team can save $27.5 million with a post-June 1, 2026 cut, meaning his performance will be heavily scrutinized in training camp and every snap matters.
