| 6/20/25 | Analyst picks Seahawks rising star as Offensive Player of the Year candidate. There may not have been a generational wide receiver in the 2023 NFL Draft, but there was a good deal of talent at the position. Ohio State's Jaxon Smith-Njigba was the first receiver off the board at No. 20 overall to the Seattle Seahawks, and he showed exactly why in his second season. Smith-Njigba, 23, had an outstanding breakout season in 2024, hauling in 100 receptions (tying the single-season franchise record) for 1,130 yards and six touchdowns. According to Jacob Infante of Pro Football & Sports Network, Smith-Njigba is the Seahawks' leading candidate to win Offensive Player of the Year after his breakout performance.

| 6/06/25 | Why new Seattle Seahawks WR stood out to Bump at OTAs. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba coming off a breakout 1,100-yard season and former All-Pro Cooper Kupp now in the fold, free-agent addition Marquez Valdes-Scantling has been a bit of an afterthought in the Seattle Seahawks' new-look wide receiver room. On Monday, Valdes-Scantling made a nice leaping touchdown catch over a defender in the corner of the end zone. Matched up against starting cornerback Riq Woolen in an 11-on-11 red-zone period, Valdes-Scantling faked a slant route and then broke hard back to his left, which enabled him to gain separation and haul in a short TD pass from Sam Darnold.

| 4/16/25 | 2025 NFL draft: Seahawks met with Oregon playmaker Traeshon Holden. In 2024, Jaxon Smith-Njigba led the Seattle Seahawks in catches (100), receiving yards (1,130) and touchdown grabs (6). Veteran Tyler Lockett totaled 49 grabs for 600 yards and two TDs. Of course, Metcalf is now a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Lockett remains on the open market after being released. General manager John Schneider signed Cooper Kupp and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, as well as River Cracraft and Steven Sims Jr. The latter figures to be more of a factor on special teams.
