Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold has been an exciting fantasy asset of late. Unfortunately, Darnold draws a very tough matchup against the Houston Texans on Monday night. Houston is the No. 1 overall team against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy in 2025. This passing defense has done well to shut down every opposing quarterback they have played, especially over the past two games. Even Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield had a pedestrian game against this defense in Week 2. Darnold's hot streak has included two straight games with at least 20 fantasy points. Additionally, Darnold has produced at least 242 passing yards in four of his past five games. Best of all, Darnold is protecting the football with just four turnovers this season. Darnold should continue to protect the ball against the Texans this week, but Houston's smothering defense may cap his overall passing output. This projects to be a lower-scoring game in a clash between two elite defenses. As such, Darnold should be rostered, but left on your bench in Week 7.

Seattle Seahawks quarterbacks Jalen Milroe and Drew Lock will split the reps in the team's first preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday. Reporters are expecting the two quarterbacks to split half of the game on Thursday as the Seahawks will rest Sam Darnold, along with several other key starters. Offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak is also expected to call several QB runs for Milroe when he's in the game against the Raiders, which makes the rookie an interesting choice for preseason DFS contests. Milroe and Lock are battling in training camp to be the backup to Darnold when the regular season opens. If he were to get on the field in 2025, Milroe would be very interesting from a fantasy perspective thanks to his elite rushing upside.
