Darnold signs big deal with Seahawks, 49ers struggle

theathletic.com —

In NFL free agency 2025, quarterback Sam Darnold signed a three-year, $100.5 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks, who also added wide receiver Cooper Kupp. This marks a significant upgrade for Darnold after a challenging season as a backup. The San Francisco 49ers faced a tough week, losing several key players, including Deebo Samuel and Dre Greenlaw, while trading away others. This indicates a shift towards retooling their roster rather than maintaining their current lineup. The Indianapolis Colts improved their defense by signing cornerback Charvarius Ward and safety Cam Bynum. Meanwhile, the Houston Texans traded left tackle Laremy Tunsil, raising concerns about their offensive line and quarterback protection for C.J. Stroud.
