Sam Darnold in the Streaming Conversation in Week 15

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is a potential streaming option in Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts have been middle-of-the-road against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy this season. Additionally, when Darnold is firing on all cylinders, he is virtually matchup-proof. Darnold should have no issues finding his top wide receivers in this game. If he keeps the turnovers down, Darnold has a great chance to hover around 250 passing yards and a pair of touchdowns. Darnold had faltered over the last handful of weeks before getting back on track in the second half of Week 14 against the Falcons. Perhaps he can carry that momentum into this week. Darnold is not a must-start by any means, but if you have a tough quarterback situation, you could do a lot worse than Darnold in Week 1 of the fantasy playoffs.

Sam Darnold Peaking Going into the Fantasy Playoffs?

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold has had his share of ups and downs in his first year in Seattle, but overall, it's been another strong season while leading the Seahawks to a 10-3 record going into Week 15 action. Darnold had a disastrous four-interception game in the loss to the Rams on Nov. 16 and also failed to throw a touchdown in last week's shutout win over the Vikings. The 28-year-old bounced back in Sunday's 37-9 rout of the Falcons, though, going 20-for-30 for 249 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception while adding 23 rushing yards on three carries. Darnold has a 22:11 TD:INT ratio in 13 games in 2025 and ranks as the QB19 in fantasy points per game. Overall, he's the QB14, and he'll be a high-end QB2 for fantasy managers in the first week of the playoffs in most leagues. Darnold will be facing a fading Colts team that has allowed the fourth-most passing yards per game (246.3). He's rostered in only 54% of Yahoo leagues.

Sam Darnold Throws for Three Touchdowns in Rout of Falcons

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold completed 20 of his 30 pass attempts for 249 yards, three passing touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 14 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He also rushed for 23 yards. Darnold bounced back from a quiet game last Sunday against the Vikings in which he had zero touchdowns. The 28-year-old has been a fringe top-12 quarterback in fantasy football all season long and has benefited from having Jaxon Smith-Njigba at his disposal. He should continue to be worth starting next week against the Indianapolis Colts as a low-end QB1.

Sam Darnold a Risky Streamer in Week 14

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is a riskier option in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. Despite the Falcons' terrible record, they have been solid against the pass this season. Darnold himself has hit a serious skid over the last several weeks. He has only cracked double-digit fantasy points once in the last four weeks. The recent run of bad games has been primarily caused by a plethora of turnovers and a lack of touchdown passes to make up for them. Darnold's 10 interceptions and five fumbles lost are already one turnover shy of his total from 2024. The Seahawks should have plenty of success running against the Falcons, which may be a better game plan for the team while Darnold works through his struggles. Of course, the Seahawks have great offensive potential, and Darnold could get back on track in any given week. There are some desperate fantasy managers out there with the Patriots and Giants on bye this week. Darnold is a risky play with an extremely low floor, but with a solid ceiling as well.

Sam Darnold Dealing With Ankle Injury, "Should be Good" for Week 14

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Seattle Sports on Monday that quarterback Sam Darnold (ankle) had a little bit of an ankle issue during Sunday's blowout win over the Minnesota Vikings, but that he "should be good to go" for Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons, according to Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune. Darnold was seen going into the medical tent on the sideline several times on Sunday, but the injury wasn't serious, and it shouldn't keep the 28-year-old from playing this weekend. He didn't need to do much in the easy 26-0 win over the Vikings, as Darnold went 14-for-26 passing for a season-low 128 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions in Week 13. Darnold should be able to bounce back against Atlanta and will be in play as a QB streamer in fantasy football as long as he doesn't aggravate his ankle issue.

Sam Darnold a Low-End Streamer in Week 13

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold should have a fine game in Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings. Although Minnesota boasts a tough defense, Darnold has been able to consistently toss a couple of touchdown passes per game this season. Additionally, Darnold's connection with wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has helped buoy a QB2 season from the veteran quarterback. Minnesota has a stout rushing defense, so expect the Seahawks to lean heavily on play-action passes. While Minnesota has a chaotic, attacking passing defense, Seattle should be able to find room to throw in this game. What is more, the Vikings will be starting rookie quarterback Max Brosmer in Week 13 with J.J. McCarthy (concussion) still in concussion protocol. As such, the Seahawks should be able to force short fields with an attacking defense of their own. With no teams on a bye this week, you may not need to stream Darnold. However, if you have struggled to find consistent quarterback play elsewhere, you could do much worse than Darnold in Week 13.

Sam Darnold Back as Reliable Fantasy Starter After Week 12 Rebound?

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold avoided mistakes and delivered another efficient performance in a Week 12 win over the Tennessee Titans, completing 16 of 26 passes for 244 yards and two touchdowns. After turning it over seven times in the past two games, Darnold took advantage of a poor Titans defense and put up his best fantasy performance since eviscerating the Washington Commanders for 330 yards and four touchdowns in Week 9. The 28-year-old repeatedly looked for superstar wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba and delivered a few beautiful deep balls for explosive gains, including a 63-yard touchdown. Darnold likely shouldn't be viewed as an every-week starter for fantasy purposes due to the low pass volume and poor track record against top-flight defenses. But he gets a revenge spot in Week 13 against his former team, the Minnesota Vikings.

Sam Darnold Cleans Up His Mistakes Against Titans

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold completed 16 of his 26 pass attempts for 244 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Tennessee Titans. Darnold had seven turnovers over his last two games coming into this week, so it was refreshing to see him play clean, turnover-free football, albeit in a softer matchup against a subpar Titans defense. The veteran quarterback had his best fantasy performance since Week 9 and will remain in the mix as a high-end QB2 for Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings in an exciting revenge game scenario. With that being said, Seattle could opt to go run-heavy against the Vikings, taking the ball out of Darnold's hands from time to time. Minnesota surrendered 146 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns to the Packers in Week 12, whereas Jordan Love only threw for 139 yards and no scores.

Sam Darnold Worth Streaming in Week 12

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is in the streaming conversation in Week 12 against the Tennessee Titans. Despite two horrific fantasy outings in a row, Tennessee presents a great chance for Darnold to get back on track. The Titans have been one of the worst defenses in the league in just about every category. The only reason they are middle-of-the-pack against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy is because they are often down by so many points early in games that teams turn to the run to salt away their victory. Darnold is coming off a performance in which he tossed four interceptions against the Los Angeles Rams. In Week 10, his services were hardly needed because the Arizona Cardinals fell behind so early in the game that the Seahawks essentially coasted after one quarter. The Titans could present a similar situation in Week 12, but look for Darnold to throw a couple of touchdown passes before this game gets out of hand. He is a low-end QB1 or high-end QB2 in Week 12.

Sam Darnold not on the Streaming Radar in Week 11

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is not someone you should look to stream this week. Darnold has been on a tear of late. He has been lighting up opposing defenses left and right. Week 11 will present the toughest task of the season. Seattle will travel to Los Angeles to face an excellent Rams defense. The Rams are No. 9 against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy this season. They have allowed some wide receivers to get loose, but quarterbacks have been stifled. Additionally, despite the excellent nature of both of these offenses, the real defining factor in this game will be each team's defense. As such, this could be a lower-scoring game than anticipated or desired. Darnold's overall passing volume could be much lower than usual. With that in mind, it is best to look elsewhere at quarterback this week. Darnold checks in as a mid-tier QB2. However, roster Darnold through this matchup because better days are ahead.
