Geno Smith And Jaxon Smith-Njigba Connection On Point

Seahawks QB Geno Smith and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba have "obvious chemistry," The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar writes. "Smith-Njigba isn’t a speedster; he wins with deception and quickness in and out of his routes. Maximizing his production requires timing and an understanding of his tempo. Smith has a good feel for that."

What They're Saying

“I just love the way JSN works,” QB Geno Smith said. “Jaxon, he’s prepared every single day. In the offseason, he was hitting me up, we flew down to Miami and got a lot of one-on-one work. When this stuff happens on the field, it’s just a result of all the work we put in and all the hard work that he’s put in. To see him continue to grow and blossom, that’s awesome.”

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Smith-Njigba had his way with the Titans secondary in joint practices this week, prompting Titans HC Brian Callahan to call JSN "one of the better slots as a young player.”

After an underwhelming rookie season that we can largely blame on Seattle's previous coaching staff, Smith-Njigba looks ready to take off under new OC Ryan Grubb.

We remain well ahead of market on JSN. He sits 39th in our WR rankings vs. WR45 in consensus ADP.
