Nobody was saying he'd be cut. If it was a 2-year $65M contract with $5M above the Mean in the 1st season and $5M below in the 2nd, well then fair enough. My understanding was that effectively a 1-year try-out which would likely lead to Darnold being cut late in year 1 or renegotiated with before year 2.I'm pretty sure Sam already cashed that $15 mill roster bonus for 2026 back in February. If the team was gonna cut him, they surely would have done it before they paid that.![]()
I've misinterpreted things before and i'm sure i'll get some things wrong in the future. I expect Darnold to agree a new contract before Week 1 of the regular season. If i'm wrong then i'm wrong. No biggie.
