Sam Darnold aims for another strong season with Seahawks in 2026
Summary

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold looks to build on his successful 2025 season, where he threw for 25 touchdowns and helped guide the team to Super Bowl 60 victory. Under new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, Darnold will need to adapt to changes in the Seahawks’ roster, including the departure of Kenneth Walker III. The Seahawks will rely on a mix of ground and aerial attack, leveraging a deep receiving core led by Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Darnold's goal for the upcoming season includes achieving a similar number of touchdowns while reducing interceptions. The season starts soon, and the team's performance will be closely monitored.
