New Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is a huge fan of "The Office," and one of the cast members is now a big fan of him. Rainn Wilson, who played Dwight Schrute on the show, welcomed Darnold to his new home in a social media post on Friday.

The Vikings decided to let Darnold’s contract expire and roll in 2025 and beyond with J.J. McCarthy, their 10th pick in last year’s draft. His season-ending knee injury last summer is why Darnold started last season.

Once the Seattle Seahawks traded quarterback Geno Smith, Sam Darnold saw his opening. The Seahawks introduced Darnold on Thursday after he signed a three-year deal he agreed to earlier in the week.
