American NFL quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks
The Rams have brought back Aaron Donald on a one-year deal worth up to $30 million, reuniting him with Myles Garrett after Donald’s 2024 retirement. The move solidifies a potent defensive front as Los Angeles seeks a second Super Bowl title at SoFi Stadium.
The Falcons have locked in Kyle Pitts on a groundbreaking three-year deal, worth $36 million guaranteed, making him one of the highest-paid tight ends in NFL history. The contract follows the signing of Drake London and signals a push to stabilize the offense for the upcoming season.
Baker Mayfield has secured a three-year, $165 million extension with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, ensuring he remains the club’s quarterback ahead of Week 1. The Buccaneers have publicly praised his leadership and impact, closing speculation on free agency. Separately, Sam Darnold’s NFC showdown remains aimed at bouncing back against the Patriots as Seattle prepares for Week 1.
Seattle has edged New England 13-10 on a banner-raising night, aided by Drew Lock’s late drives and a trio of Drake Maye fourth-quarter interceptions. Darnold exits early with a hip injury, but Seattle’s defense seals the win with a final-end zone pick.
