Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold and three other players on his team were finalists for the NFL’s most prestigious awards, presented on Thursday night.
The NFL’s top stars were in New Orleans for the 2025 NFL Honors on FOX.
There hasn’t been much drama at the NFL Honors show over the past few years, but there was some on Thursday night.
Darnold arrived at the event with his girlfriend, Katie Hoofnagle.
She likely did not plan to steal the show, but that is exactly what she did as she sported a silver dress that fit perfectly to her body.
At one point, the dynamic couple was shown as Snoop Dogg was working the crowd.

What Happens To Sam Darnold During The Offseason?
One of the biggest questions of the upcoming NFL offseason is where Sam Darnold will end up after he shocked everyone with a surprising Pro Bowl season with the Vikings that ended terribly in the last few games.
His two worst games were a Week 18 loss to the Lions, which kicked Minnesota to the NFC’s fifth seed, and a wild-card loss to the Rams.
Where Darnold signs could change things for a ton of teams.
A recent article from ESPN’s Ben Solak says Darnold should expect to get a deal that pays him $30 to $40 million a year.
A conservative estimate places him on a three-year deal worth about $30 million annually — just below Baker Mayfield’s yearly figure and just above that of Geno Smith. … But the league is absolutely desperate for quarterbacks — both generally speaking and specifically in this moment. … The fact that Darnold was the third pick in 2018 — and continues to throw the ball with the sort of spectacular arm talent only ex-No. 3 picks can — makes him a more interesting commodity on the open market. … While the idea of signing Darnold to a four-year, $140 million deal seems preposterous, I wouldn’t be surprised to see those figures at all. Functionally that ends up playing out more like a two-year, $70 million contract with a couple of team options attached behind it if Darnold plays well.
