The Athletic insider Michael-Shawn Dugar thinks Milroe will get a chance to play during his rookie season. "Head coach Mike Macdonald called Sam Darnold before selecting Jalen Milroe with the 92nd pick in the draft. Darnold, signed to a three-year, $100.5 million contract in March, is still Seattle’s starting quarterback," Dugar wrote.

The Seattle Seahawks have a brand new quarterback room entering the 2025 NFL offseason. After trading Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders, the front office worked quickly to begin free agency and signed former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold to a major three-year, $10.5 million contract.

Seahawks rookie QB Jalen Milroe has elite dual threat ability, which has one NFL writer predicting he will make an instant impact in 2025.
