Jaxon Smith-Njigba Leads Seahawks In Receiving
a week ago

With Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) out of the lineup, wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba stepped into the No. 1 wide receiver role. In a low-volume passing day from the Seahawks offense, Smith-Njigba led the team in targets with seven. He caught six passes for 69 yards. Considering that the Seahawks offense was anemic for most of the game, Smith-Njigba's output was respectable. It is clear that he is the No. 2 wide receiver behind Metcalf at this point, but we still have yet to see a string of full breakout performances. With Metcalf possibly back in Week 9, Smith-Njigba could be relegated to his usual role in the offense. However, if Metcalf were to miss another game, Smith-Njigba would be a solid start again next week. The Rams are a much worse defense than the Bills and the Seahawks should have a much easier time moving the ball. If this offense could find some level of consistency, then better days are headed for all of the skill players.
