Of course, 90+% of snaps wouldn’t be a cause for concern for anyone hoping to draft Sam Darnold this season – but it is interesting to hear that Jalen Milroe could have some run in a gadget capacity for the Seahawks in 2025. The Taysom Hill game (yes, that game – 44 fantasy points) brings back fond memories and nightmares at the same time for fantasy managers, and if utilized as a short-yardage/goal-line ball carrier, Milroe could have some value as a moonshot flex in deeper leagues. He could also have the potential to take over sooner rather than later should Sam Darnold underperform, and on an offense featuring weapons like JSN, Cooper Kupp, Elijah Arroyo, and the three-headed monster of Walker, Charbonnet, and Martinez in the backfield, Milroe could have some nice upside as a handcuff to Darnold – whether that be from injury or from a coaches decision to bench him.
