Sam Howell is an American football quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks of the NFL. He was drafted in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Washington Commanders with pick no. 144. Howell was born to parents Duke and Amy Howell on September 16, 2000, in Waynesville, North Carolina. He spent all his life in North Carolina as he attended Sun Valley High School and the University of North Carolina (UNC). In high school, Howell had an amazing journey as the QB of Sun Valley High School as he finished his high school football career with 13,415 yards and 145 touchdowns while also adding 3,621 yards and 60 touchdowns on the ground.
At UNC, Howell was the starting signal caller from his freshman season. In three years with the Tar Heels, he passed for over 10,000 yards, 92 touchdowns, and just 23 interceptions with a passer rating of 164.2. In 2022, Howell spent his rookie season on the bench only getting to play in the final game of the season against the Dallas Cowboys. However, he got the starting opportunity as the Commanders' signal caller in 2023. He finished the year throwing for almost 4,000 yards to go along with 21 touchdowns and 21 interceptions. However, with a new coaching staff in place for the 2024 season, Commanders went with a young signal caller in Jayden Daniels in the 2024 NFL draft while trading Howell to Seattle, where he is a QB2 behind Geno Smith as of October 2024.
