Sam Darnold returns from a glute injury with no designation and will start for the Seattle Seahawks against the Washington Commanders, after missing Week 2 when Drew Lock thrived in relief. He progressed from a limited practice to full participation and was cleared Friday, rebounding from an opener where he went 1-for-2 for 13 yards before exiting. Darnold’s 2025 campaign produced 4,048 passing yards and 25 touchdowns en route to a 14-3 regular season, helping Seattle reach a Super Bowl triumph; the team now aims to pick up where that momentum left off as he restarts the 2026 slate.
