The guy who benefited most from Darnold was rookie wide receiver Tory Horton Jr., who scored two touchdowns in the first half, taking over the team lead with five TDs on the season - six if you also count his 95-yard punt return against the Saints. He caught all four of his targets for 48 yards.
Sam Darnold was nearly perfect, throwing for 330 yards and four scores, to lead the Seattle Seahawks to a dominant win over the Washington Commanders.
From the opening drive, the Seattle Seahawks set the tone. They jumped out to a 7-0 lead and exploded in the second quarter, piling up 24 points before Washington could find rhythm.

Kaho is active today, only the second time he’s been made available on game day this season. Medrano was active last week, but he only played on special teams.
Seattle's latest road win improves their record away from Lumen Field this season to 4-0, and a remarkable 11-1 under head coach Mike Macdonald.
