Overview

• Smith-Njigba caught eight passes for 162 yards and a touchdown in Seattle’s 20-12 road victory over Jacksonville in Week 6.
• He leads the NFL with 696 receiving yards through six games, the most by any Seahawk in a six-game span per ESPN Research.
• Advanced tracking shows a downfield-heavy profile, including a league-high 550 yards on deeper targets, at least one 35-plus-yard catch in every game, and five receptions of 40-plus yards.
• Efficiency metrics are standout, with 16.6 yards per catch, 12.4 yards per target, an explosive-play rate near 40% on targets, and a 133.9 passer rating when targeted.
• The Darnold–Smith-Njigba pairing features a 75% completion rate and strong EPA per play, while Seattle leans on the passing game as the run attack struggles and projections suggest a season pace that could surpass franchise records and potentially approach the NFL mark.
