Bleacher Report lists Sam Darnold as honorable mention for clutch quarterbacks

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold earned an honorable mention on Bleacher Report’s recent ranking of the top 10 most clutch signal-callers in the NFL. Despite a championship-winning tenure, analyst Brad Gagnon cited a limited sample size as the primary reason for keeping Darnold off the primary list. Darnold recorded a 110.2 passer rating during fourth-quarter play in one-score games over the past two seasons while split between Minnesota and Seattle. His performance included key late-game drives during 2024 victories against the Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers. The quarterback has amassed over 4,000 passing yards during his last two campaigns, establishing himself as a central figure in the Seattle offense. He continues to draw praise for his ability to maintain leads and secure wins during late-game situations as the league approaches the 2026 season.
