Two major fundamentals have transformed the 28-year-old quarterback from NFL journeyman to one its best passers the last two seasons.

Sam Darnold's near-perfect performance has put him in the MVP race, but a different QB has taken the No. 1 spot in the MVP stock watch.

Which fantasy football players benefited or were hurt most by the moves made by teams at the 202% NFL trade deadline? Here's a quick breakdown.

The Raiders could've gotten themselves a very solid quarterback in Sam Darnold during the offseason, but Tom Brady said no.

Athlon Sports NFL analysts Doug Farrar and Luke Easterling discuss the MVP worthiness of Darnold, Maye and a few other candidates.

Sam Darnold is off to a career-best start in Seattle, ranking among the NFL’s leaders in passer rating and yards per completion. After years of instability under center, the Seahawks may have finally found their guy.

Behind Sam Darnold's 330 passing yards, the Seahawks cruised against the Commanders in a 38-14 win on 'Sunday Night Football.'

Seattle's blowout of the Washington Commanders on Sunday night was a clinic by Darnold and also featured a swarming, attacking defense that ranks fifth in the league in scoring (18.8 points allowed per game) and is tied for third in sacks (27).

The Seahawks are off to their best start since 2020. Jaxon Smith-Njigba could threaten Calvin Johnson for the NFL single-season receiving yards record.
