One year ago, the topic of Sam Darnold's next destination being the biggest storyline of the NFL offseason seemed unfathomable. But that's how quickly things can change in the world of professional football.
Darnold is set to hit free agency next week after a career-revitalizing year with the Minnesota Vikings. In 17 games, Darnold set career highs in passing yards (4,319), touchdowns (35) and passer rating (102.5), leading the Vikings to a 14–3 record and a surprising playoff appearance.
