Sam Darnold's fiancée delivers emotional tribute after Seahawks' Super Bowl win

The Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX, and Sam Darnold threw for 202 yards and a TD. Colin Cowherd discusses the win and how much credit Darnold deserves for it.

Sam Darnold’s fiancée, Katie Hoofnagle, took to social media to post a heartfelt message about the quarterback after the Seattle Seahawks' Super Bowl LX victory.

The couple went official with their romance in 2023 and got engaged prior to the 2025 season. Hoofnagle praised Darnold for his humility on his journey.

"And despite everything, you remained kind. In moments where it would’ve been so easy to make excuses or put the blame on somebody else, you never wavered. Your patience, respect, discipline, and humility have continuously shone through, even on the hardest days of the journey," Hoofnagle posted to Instagram.

"It’s an honor and a privilege to share you with the world on Sundays, and I’m so grateful that you finally got your flowers on the biggest stage. As long as I’m alive, you’ll always have someone who is proud of you in everything that you do."

"Earned, not deserved. LFG 14. LFG SEAHAWKS. YOUR SBLX CHAMPIONS, EVERYONE!!!"

Darnold’s journey to stardom has not been linear. After an unsuccessful first three years with the New York Jets, he was traded to the Carolina Panthers.
