Sam Darnold start or sit: Week 15 fantasy football advice

Week 15 of the 2025 NFL season will continue on this afternoon with a battle of playoff contenders as the Indianapolis Colts will visit the Seattle Seahawks at 4:25 p.m. ET on CBS.

The Seahawks buried the Falcons in a 37-9 blowout victory last Sunday, a win that allowed them to keep pace with the Rams in the race for the NFC West title. Quarterback Sam Darnold had another productive outing as he’s closing in on successfully leading a team to the postseason for a second straight season.

Below, we’ll go over Danold’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 15.

Fantasy Football analysis: Seahawks QB Sam Darnold

As mentioned before, Darnold had yet another productive afternoon with 249 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception through the air and even got to use his legs a little bit with 23 rushing yards also on his stat sheet. The former No. 3 overall pick had somewhat cooled of over the past few weeks and was responsible for zero scores in their win over the Vikings the week prior, so it was nice to see him step forward with a performance like that one.

Darnold has remained one of the more reliable QB’s in the entire league, still topping his peers with a 52.3% success rate while also ranking in the top 10 in passing yards, passing EPA, and ADOT. Averaging 15.4 fantasy points per game with a rostership of roughly 41%, he has remained one of the more slept on fantasy QB’s this season and is still just sitting there on the waiver wire for anyone who needs QB help in the playoffs.

Start him.
