Trade speculation surrounding Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold has intensified, with reports suggesting a possible return to the Minnesota Vikings. The speculation follows a November 30, 2025, matchup at Lumen Field where the Seahawks defeated the Vikings 26-0. After the game, Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell and Darnold, then wearing No. 14 for Seattle, were photographed embracing on the field. The interaction has fueled rumors that Darnold, who previously played for Minnesota, could be targeted in a trade to reunite with his former team. As of early November 2026, no official trade discussions have been confirmed by either franchise.
