Seahawks’ head coach Pete Carroll said he expects rookie first-round pick Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who underwent wrist surgery last month, to play Sunday’s opener vs. the Rams.

Related Players: DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett

Fantasy Impact:

As it stands, the Seahawks arguably have the best 3-WR set in the NFL when they are all healthy. Smith-Njigba can be considered a Flex option in Week 1, while Geno Smith is set up for another great season.

Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba to have wrist surgery

Seahawks’ first-round pick Jaxon Smith-Njigba is undergoing wrist surgery today in Philadelphia, but still could have a chance to be ready for the start of the regular season, per sources.

Fantasy Impact:

Schefter added that JSN broke a bone in his wrist on the play in which he almost scored Saturday night. Surgery will determine how long he will miss. Reading into it a bit, even if JSN misses games, it seems safe to conclude it may just be a couple of weeks to start the season. Metcalf and Lockett will remain the top-two targets but Eskridge, Bobo and Young are next up behind Smith-Njigba should he not be available. We'll continue to monitor his timeline.

Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba is a "perfect fit" for Seattle and believes he has "no ceiling"

They (the Seahawks) wanted a slot receiver who understood zone coverage and how to feel underneath defenders and make himself available to the quarterback. They needed someone who was more quick than fast, but at the same time, crafty and explosive with the ball in his hands. Against man coverage, their preferred receiver needed to be proficient at the line of scrimmage and have a wide catch radius.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba is the perfect fit for Seattle’s offense.

Related Players: DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett

Fantasy Impact:

The article mentions that the Seahawks ran a below-average amount of 11 personnel (53% of their plays), yet it was the team's most popular player grouping. The drafting of JSN should give a clue as to how they will prefer to run their offense this coming season, and all three receivers should have their moments, barring injuries.

If Metcalf and Lockett cut their prerequisite 100+ target seasons, it's difficult to see how Smith-Njigba has a ceiling outcome 2023 season. All three options are top-50 WRs in our current rankings, with Metcalf leading the way as the WR15.
