The Seattle Seahawks are going in a different direction this upcoming season with Sam Darnold under center after moving over from the NFC North, and despite the big contract bump he's getting with his new team they might not be as committed to him as many originally thought.

The Seahawks gave themselves an escape patch in Sam Darnold’s contract. Darnold, after a renaissance season with the Vikings, signed a three-year deal worth $100.5 million with the Seahawks in free agency. But the Seahawks can get out after just one year with the way the contract is structured.
