Summary
Sam Darnold’s breakout season with the Seahawks has already set the stage for a massive contract extension — and he’s watching Baker Mayfield’s negotiations closely. Both quarterbacks followed similar paths: high draft picks, backup stints, then starting roles on one-year deals that turned into mid-level contracts. While Mayfield’s Tampa Bay success hasn’t matched Darnold’s Seahawks run, the key for Darnold is consistency — especially with new head coach Klint Kubiak heading to the Raiders. If Darnold replicates his 2025 magic, he’s primed for a huge payday in 2027. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
