Jaxon Smith-Njigba - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football
one year ago

Rookie wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba made his regular-season debut against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 1 and caught three passes for 13 yards. The Seahawks' first selection from the 2023 NFL Draft saw as many targets (five) as veteran receivers DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, but he ran only 23 routes and his aDOT was just 1.2 yards. His limited usage may have been the result of returning from preseason wrist surgery performed on August 22, but it also was a symptom of the Rams' complete domination of the second half of their season opener. Smith-Njigba will face the Detroit Lions on the road in Week 2 and should remain on fantasy benches until Seattle gives their new receiver a more consistent role.
