Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald says he is staying with quarterback Sam Darnold as the team’s starter, even after a turnover-heavy stretch in which Darnold has thrown multiple interceptions in recent games.
Across outlets, the key common point is that Darnold’s current run includes seven interceptions within a limited span of appearances. Yahoo Sports notes Darnold previously led the Seahawks to a Super Bowl victory during his first season in Seattle, while ESPN and CBS Sports focus on Macdonald’s public confidence and decision to avoid making a quarterback change despite the interceptions. CBS Sports similarly frames the situation as Macdonald shutting down speculation about swapping starters.
While the reporting emphasizes different details—such as the timing and the exact number of games referenced—the overall message is consistent: the coaching staff continues to view Darnold as part of the solution and plans to keep him in the starting role.
