Seahawks QB Darnold’s supporting cast No. 10 in Fox Sports ranking
Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold’s teammates on offense were ranked No. 10 out of all 32 teams’ supporting casts by Fox Sports for the 2026 season.
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold has quite the supporting cast around him on offense for the 2026 NFL season. But just how good is the talent that Darnold has to work with compared to all of the other offensive units in the league? According to Fox Sports’ Ralph Vacchiano, the help that Darnold has around him in Seattle ranks No.
10 out of all 32 teams in the NFL. ”Jaxon Smith-Njigba might be the closest thing to Ja’Marr Chase west of the Mississippi,” Vacchiano said. “Even with a full season of Rashid Shaeed, which should help diversify the passing attack, the Seahawks might need even more out of JSN this season.
There’s just no downplaying the loss of running back Kenneth Walker III, who was huge during their Super Bowl run. ” The Seahawks ranked No. 9 in the NFL in passing yards last season with 4,063 and have all of their core contributors in the passing game returning next season.
Seahawks starting running back Zach Charbonnet being out with a torn ACL to start next season figures to slightly increase the onus that is placed on Seattle’s aerial attack in 2026, but the same group of guys with the same level of talent will look to help the Seahawks defend their Vince Lombardi Trophy from last season. The departures of Walker III, the Super Bowl MVP from last season, and former Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak this offseason will have a reverberation on Seattle’s offense in 2026. However, Seahawks rookie running back Jadarian Price gives Seattle a promising starter in the offensive backfield while Charbonnet recovers from injury, and a ball-carrier that has the potential to play at the same level as Charbonnet even in his first year in the league.
