Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has experienced a breakout season as a sophomore in 2024. Smith-Njigba leads the Seahawks in receptions (96), receiving yards (1,121) and touchdowns (six) this year. JSN will be chasing history in Sunday’s regular-season finale versus the Los Angeles Rams in Week 18.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba is on the verge of breaking Tyler Lockett's single-season receptions record in what could be Lockett's last game as a member of the Seattle Seahawks.

The Seattle Seahawks are eliminated from playoff contention. Despite their 3-0 start, they had too many mid-season losses to keep pace with the Los Angeles Rams. The highlight of their season has been second-year wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

RENTON — As he has done so often the last two years, Tyler Lockett pulled Jaxon Smith-Njigba aside a few weeks ago and gave him a little encouragement. Only this time was a little different.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba had led the Seattle Seahawks in receiving for a seventh straight game, catching 10 passes for 83 yards in their home loss to the Green Bay Packers on Dec. 15. The performance put him on the doorstep of 1,000 yards for the campaign and led to a question about his breakout second season.

The Seattle Seahawks were eliminated from playoff contention in Week 17. When the Washington Commanders beat the Atlanta Falcons, the Los Angeles Rams clinched the NFC West. Now, Seattle faces Los Angeles in Week 18 with very little on the line.
