2024 Outlook
Availability
Sam Howell completed 5-of-14 passes for 24 yards and an interception in the Seahawks 30-13 loss against the Packers.
Fantasy Impact
Howell entered the game late after Geno Smith went down with an injury and would not return. Howell took four sacks, partially because of the Seahawks offensive line but also partially because of his pocket awareness. He'll be off the fantasy radar if he starts next week against the Vikings.
Sam Howell completed 6-of-9 pass attempts for 45 yards in the Seahawks’ 37-33 win over the Browns.
Fantasy Impact
Howell added 19 rushing yards on three carries in the win. After being acquired from the Commanders in the offseason, the 23-year-old is expected to open the season as the backup QB to Geno Smith, with PJ Walker serving as the QB3.
Sam Howell completed 11-of-14 passes for 153 yards and one touchdown in the Seahawks' 16-15 loss to the Titans Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Howell also rushed twice for 11 yards on the day. The North Carolina product continues an impressive preseason and has made a strong case to begin the season as the No. 2 QB on the depth chart ahead of PJ Walker.
Seahawks QB Sam Howell completed 16-of-27 pass attempts for 130 yards and one touchdown in a win over the Chargers.

Howell rushed for 17 yards on four attempts. He drew the start in his debut with the Seahawks after being acquired from the Commanders in the offseason. The former fifth-round pick appears to have a leg up on PJ Walker for the QB2 role for Seattle.
Sam Howell said he is adjusting to backup role again with the Seahawks.
Fantasy Impact
“In this league, to be able to play, you’ve got to compete and that’s what I’m willing to do, no matter what the situation is, no matter who the starter is,” Howell said. "If I’m the starter, I’m coming to compete every single day,” Howell added that he has been able to learn under Geno Smith. The 2022 fifth-round pick talked about how he learned last season how costly his mistakes can be for his team. “I think I could play some smarter ball. I think there were times where we were down big in some games, I was a little too aggressive just trying to make something happen trying to get us back in the game,” Howell said.
