Jaxon Smith-Njigba Dominates in NFC Championship Game Win

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was one of the stars of his team's NFC Championship Game victory over the Los Angeles Rams, recording 10 catches for 153 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets. The 23-year-old bounced back from a relatively disappointing performance in the Divisional Round against the San Francisco 49ers, in which he was held to just three receptions for 19 yards and a touchdown on four targets. In the Super Bowl, Smith-Njigba will face the New England Patriots. New England's pass defense has been completely dominant so far this postseason, allowing a total of 415 passing yards through three games. However, the Patriots have not exactly faced a murderer's row of opposing offenses, including the backup quarterback-led Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship Game. Regardless of opponent, Smith-Njigba has been arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL this season and carries elite production upside into the Super Bowl.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Poised for Another Big Game Against Rams

Coming off a season-low 19 receiving yards in the Divisional Round victory over the San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba feels like a lock for big production in Sunday's NFC Championship game against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. Not only has the Rams' defense allowed the most half-PPR points per game (30.8) to opposing wideouts over the last five weeks, but JSN tormented L.A. in their previous two meetings in 2025. In two contests against the Rams in the regular season, Smith-Njigba caught 17 of his 25 targets for 201 yards and one touchdown. He was second to only Puka Nacua in overall half-PPR points during 17 regular-season games and led the NFL with 1,793 receiving yards on 119 receptions. In what could very well be another shootout between these two teams in Seattle on Sunday, Smith-Njigba has arguably the most fantasy upside of any WR this weekend.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Looking for Third Straight Strong Game Against Rams

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the Seahawks will face a familiar foe in the NFC Championship game this weekend in the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. Smith-Njigba led the NFL with 1,793 yards and scored the third-most touchdowns (10) among wideouts on 119 receptions. He's proven in his second year in the league that he's one of the best receivers in the NFL, and he'll have a chance to go off for the third straight time this year against a Rams defense that has surrendered the most half-PPR fantasy points to the position in the last five weeks. In the first meeting against L.A. in a Week 11 loss, JSN had a season-high nine catches for 105 yards on 12 targets. In the rematch in the overtime win in Week 16, Smith-Njigba caught eight of 13 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown. In what could be a shootout, Smith-Njigba is one of the highest-upside receivers in fantasy this week.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Remains a High-End WR Option Entering Postseason

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was arguably the best pass-catcher in football in 2025, recording 119 receptions for 1,793 yards and 10 touchdowns on 163 targets. While Smith-Njigba's overall numbers are dominant, his production dropped off slightly down the stretch of the season. After topping 100 receiving yards in eight out of his first 11 games of the year, he hit the century mark just once over his final six contests. Smith-Njigba was also held out of the end zone in three of his last four games. Still, Smith-Njigba earned at least eight targets and recorded six receptions in five straight outings to close the year, and he logged at least 14.4 PPR fantasy points in all but two regular-season appearances. With the Seahawks earning a bye through the first round of the NFC playoffs, Smith-Njigba's first postseason opponent is not yet known. However, regardless of opponent, Smith-Njigba profiles as a high-end wide receiver option for fantasy managers in playoff leagues.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Should Continue to Dominate in Week 17

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in a position to dominate once again in Week 17 against the Carolina Panthers. Carolina has a solid passing defense, but JSN has proven to be matchup-proof time and again this season. Smith-Njigba's target share is simply too large for him to bust in most games. Additionally, the Seahawks move him all over the field and scheme plenty of looks for the third-year pro. Although Carolina has a talented secondary, it will be difficult for them to keep track of JSN at all times. This is a must-win game for both teams. There is a path for Carolina to clinch its division this week, and the Seahawks need this win to vie for the No. 1 seed in the NFC. As such, this could be a higher-scoring game than many may expect. If Carolina's offense can put some pressure on Seattle's defense, it will only serve to boost Smith-Njigba's targets if Seattle needs to continually air the ball out. Start JSN as your anchor during championship week and do not look back.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Bounces Back in Second Half and Overtime

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught eight of his 13 targets for 96 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's Week 16 win over the Los Angeles Rams in overtime. Smith-Njigba didn't have a single catch during the entire first half, sending managers into a panic as the fantasy playoffs continue in most leagues. However, he was highly explosive throughout the second half and overtime, during which he scored the game-winning touchdown. The 23-year-old is the second-highest-scoring fantasy receiver (full-PPR) in 2025, trailing only Puka Nacua. He has been one of the biggest risers in the NFL this season, and he should continue to be started as an elite WR1 option in Week 17 against the Carolina Panthers.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Should be Fine in Tough Matchup

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba figures to continue his stellar season in Week 16 despite a tough matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The last time these two teams met in Week 11, JSN recorded nine receptions for 105 yards. Outside of a 4.30 PPR fantasy point outing in Week 13, Smith-Njigba has been matchup-proof this year. Seattle will need Smith-Njigba's services often if it hopes to win this game. Despite the talent the Rams boast in their defensive secondary, JSN should be able to overcome those challenges. Given his ability to thrive in most matchups this season, Smith-Njigba is not a player you should temper expectations for. Expect him to continue delivering WR1 numbers in the fantasy football semifinals, and set the rest of your lineup as you normally would with those expectations.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Should Continue to Shine in Week 15

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is right back in the mix as a WR1 in Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts. Smith-Njigba has just one dud this season. Outside of his 4.8 fantasy point performance against the Vikings in Week 14, JSN has been an absolute league-winner this year. Smith-Njigba has been matchup-proof this season, and his play has been great both at home and on the road. To add to the excitement for the week, the Colts are No. 27 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy this season. As if JSN needed more space to operate, the Colts have been very leaky in the secondary, even since adding cornerback Sauce Gardner (calf). Additionally, Gardner has been ruled out for this game. RotoBaller currently has Smith-Njigba ranked as the No. 1 wide receiver for the week, and rightfully so. If you have JSN on your team for the first week of the fantasy playoffs, you should be very excited about the production you may be about to experience.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Scores Twice in Victory Over Falcons

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba bounced back in a big way during Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Smith-Njigba gave fantasy managers a dud last week when he finished with two receptions for 23 yards in the win over the Minnesota Vikings. The third-year wideout was much more involved this weekend. Smith-Njigba scored his first touchdown of the day on a 28-yard play in the third quarter. He found the end zone a second time on a four-yard pass in the fourth. The 23-year-old hauled in seven of his 10 targets for 92 yards and two scores in the blowout win. He'll look to continue his MVP-type season against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba a Prime Bounce-Back Candidate in Week 14

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in a position to bounce back in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. After being the most consistent player in fantasy through his first 11 games, JSN finally came back down to Earth in Week 13. He logged just two receptions for 23 yards. These types of games happen relatively often for wide receivers. Week 13 was also a very strange game for Seattle. Quarterback Sam Darnold was relatively ineffective, but the Vikings' offense was completely inept. Seattle ultimately kicked a lot of field goals and scored on defense, which propelled them to victory. Although Smith-Njigba's matchup with the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14 is not ideal, he has proven to be matchup-proof in just about every game this year. Darnold's play should improve. It cannot get much worse than it has been over the last few weeks. Even with Darnold playing poorly, JSN has still managed to produce in fantasy. Start Smith-Njigba as a top-five option once again in Week 14.
