    Sam Darnold, Seattle Seahawks quarterback, recently gave an interview with NBC Bay Area and credited much of his success to his former teammate, Brock Purdy. Darnold and Purdy played together during their time with the San Francisco 49ers. While Darnold has made his way through two other teams since then, Purdy has remained with the 49ers as their starting quarterback.

    Darnold is currently with the Seattle Seahawks, with whom he will make his debut in the forthcoming NFL season. In this NFL offseason, the quarterback signed a three-year deal with the Seahawks for a sum of $100.5 million with $55 million guaranteed.

    “Brock helped me a ton…With certain things of how to prepare and even just watching him play. Just how he processes on the field and all those certain things. “First of all, I think his poise. Whether he made a good play, a bad play, you celebrate on the field with your teammates, you get pumped, but then you come right back to the sideline and you have the same demeanor. That was something I always admired about Brock. And then the other thing. Is how he prepared. I say this all the time, but I give Brock a ton of credit in showing me the ropes that way. He showed me so much in how to prepare and how to study. He was so helpful that way.” Sam Darnold said of Brock Purdy in his recent interview with NBC Bay Area.

    Sam Darnold originally kicked off his NFL career with the New York Jets who bagged him as the third pick in the very first round of the 2018 draft. From there, the talented quarterback moved to the Carolina Panthers and then to the San Francisco 49ers, where he met Brock Purdy. In the previous NFL season, Darnold played for the Minnesota Vikings, where he threw for a total of 4,319 yards, scoring 35 touchdowns, while managing 12 interceptions for the team.

    Sam Darnold’s Fourth OTA Practice Did Not Go Too Well

    Sam Darnold is eager to make a solid impression with his brand-new team, the Seattle Seahawks and definitely wants to wow them during the OTAs. According to recent reports, Darnold’s fourth OTA practice was not all great, and the quarterback made several mistakes.

    However, mistakes are part of the game and the quarterback still has a long way to go with the team. Darnold and the rest of the Seahawks will be officially opening their season with a matchup against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1 NFL.
