The offseason program, though, showed evidence of an emerging chemistry between quarterback Sam Darnold and Shaheed. The two then worked to enhance it during the summer when Shaheed — who spent a good portion of the offseason in his native San Diego — for workouts with Darnold at Saddleback (Calif.) College.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Full offseason, Darnold chemistry, and familiar scheme position Shaheed for year-two breakout.

Shaheed's offensive production is expected to increase in 2026 due to three key factors: (1) he will have a full offseason and training camp with the Seahawks after joining mid-season in 2025, (2) he has developed chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold through summer workouts at Saddleback College, and (3) new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury's scheme is similar to the previous system, allowing Shaheed to "play faster and think a lot less."
