Jaxon Smith-Njigba News: Light work in preseason debut

Smith-Njigba brought in his only target for seven yards in Friday's 33-16 preseason win over Kansas City.

Seattle's key starters on offense got to see the field for the first drive of Friday's exhibition before exiting with a clean bill of health. New starting QB Sam Darnold connected with Smith-Njigba for the first time as teammates for a short gain. With DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett joining different clubs this past offseason, Smith-Njigba will attempt to build off of last year's fantasy breakout as Seattle's undisputed No. 1 receiver in 2025.
