Darden caught his lone target for six yards across 12 games between the Browns (seven) and Seahawks (five) in 2024. He also returned 10 punts for 75 yards and seven kickoffs for 199 yards. The 2021 fourth-round pick didn't play an offensive snap for the Seahawks. He'll be a restricted free agent this offseason, and even if the Seahawks retain him, Darden will need to earn his job in training camp.

The Seahawks claimed Darden off waivers Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports. Darden was waived by the Browns on Wednesday, and it didn't take long for the 2021 fourth-round pick to find a new home. Darden has mostly operated as a return man this season and has logged 234 punt-return yards and 97 kickoff-return yards across seven regular-season games.

Darden was waived by the Browns on Wednesday. Darden appeared in seven games for Cleveland this season, seeing most of his opportunities as a return man on special teams. The 2021 fourth-round selection only had 20 offensive snaps but caught his only target for a six-yard gain. In a corresponding move, the Browns signed Bailey Zappe to bolster their quarterback depth.

The Browns signed Darden from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday. Darden had already reached his maximum of three elevations from the practice squad, meaning he had to be inked to the 53-man roster in order to contribute Sunday against the Chargers. The 25-year-old will continue working as a key punt returner for the Browns, as well as playing a depth role on offense.

Darden reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday. Darden didn't record any offensive stats across four snaps played, but he did contribute on special teams as he returned three punts for 36 yards. The 25-year-old has now been elevated for the maximum amount of three games and will have to be signed to the active roster if he's to play again for the Browns this season.
