Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Another 100-yard effort in loss
Rotowire
Smith-Njigba brought in six of 11 targets for 118 yards and a touchdown in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.
Smith-Njigba was in his usual position of leading the Seahawks across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets, and he crossed the 100-yard mark for the seventh time in eight games this season with a pair of catches on Seattle's final drive of the night. Smith-Njigba's target total was also his sixth double-digit tally of the campaign, and the absence of Rashid Shaheed (knee) helped reinforce JSN's downfield role even further. Smith-Njigba will now head into a Week 9 home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday just 15 yards short of his third consecutive 1,000-yard campaign and only a touchdown shy of tying the career-high 10 he recorded over 17 regular-season games last season.
Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Racks up 150 rec yards, TD in Week 7
Rotowire
Smith-Njigba caught nine of 12 targets for 150 yards and a touchdown while rushing twice for 13 yards in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Chiefs.
After leading the league in catches, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns through Week 6, Smith-Njigba picked up the pace with a season-high 163 scrimmage yards Sunday night. JSN scored his eighth touchdown of the season on a 28-yard catch in the second quarter, with four apiece having been thrown by Sam Darnold and Drew Lock. Smith-Njigba became the sixth player in NFL history to reach 100 receiving yards in six of his team's first seven regular-season games. He led the league in receiving yards last regular season and is showing no signs of slowing down heading into a Week 8 home game against the Bears on MNF.
