Should You Start or Sit Jaxon Smith-Njigba in Week 15?
At this point, it’s not a hot take to label Smith-Njigba as the WR1 in Seattle. His success rate seems to be tied with the team’s success, and that’s always a good sign for business as it’s a good way to experience role expansion.
During the Seahawks’ four-game winning streak, all JSN has done is catch 25 of 27 targets for 443 yards and a pair of touchdowns. No big deal. The list of receivers to post four straight games with an 85% catch rate and 70 receiving yards since 2009 isn’t long:
- Amon-Ra St. Brown (Weeks 10-13, 2022)
- Smith-Njigba (current)
Could that be the trajectory of this former Buckeye? I’m not saying no.
