NFL teams have two weeks, beginning Tuesday, to use their franchise- and transition-player tags on players, like Darnold, who are eligible for unrestricted free agency next month.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback and pending free agent Sam Darnold is expected to sign a multi-year contract worth $160 million this offseason.

Following a successful year in Minnesota, Darnold heads into free agency. He recently signed a one-year, $10 million deal with the Vikings. As Darnold should likely see a massive boost in his salary, a recent prediction by Marcus Mosher at The 33rd Team has the Vikings quarterback packing his bags in free agency.
