Sam Darnold s Contract Details Reveal Year-To-Year Structure
The Seahawks used a year-to-year structure on Geno Smith‘s last contract, and they appear to have done the same with Sam Darnold. Darnold’s new deal with Seattle contains $37.5MM in fully-guaranteed money, which will comprise his 2025 compensation, per Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio. He will then be owed $27.5MM for 2026 and $35.5MM in 2027. […]

Seahawks signed CB Shemar Jean-Charles, formerly of the Saints, to a one-year contract.
Jean-Charles is a former fifth-round pick who has appeared in 37 regular season games over four years. The well-traveled corner totaled 14 tackles and one interception last season with the Saints while playing on a career-high 143 defensive snaps. ESPN's Brady Henderson believes Jean-Charles has a chance to replace corner Tre Brown, who recently left to sign with the 49ers.

ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio reports the terms of Sam Darnold's contract with the Seahawks allows the two sides part ways after one season if necessary.
Shortly after Florio wrote an article about the terms of Darnold's contract not yet being available, Florio was back with the details from "a source with knowledge of the terms." According to Florio, Darnold is set to earn a guaranteed $37.5 million in 2025. However, Darnold's 2026 compensation, which is $27.5 million overall and $17.5 million in guaranteed money, doesn't kick in until the week after the Super Bowl. This means there will be a handful of weeks after the season ends for the Seahawks to decide if the team wants to continue forward with Darnold in 2026, or be one-and-done with the former first-round pick. Darnold threw for 3,419-35-12 in his lone season with the Vikings. Now, the Seahawks and GM John Schneider hope he can provide a significant upgrade over Geno Smith, who they traded to the Raiders just over a week ago. If Darnold doesn't live up to expectations, the Seahawks can cut bait after the season and move on without owing him any more than the money paid to him in 2025. It's a very team friendly deal, for a team that may be right back in the QB market in 2026 if things don't pan out.
