Former Ohio State Wide Receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba A “Massive Piece” Of Seattle Seahawks’ Offense in 2024

There are days when even the brightest stars at wide receiver might struggle to catch seven total passes in live team reps during a given practice.

In one OTA training session this May, Jaxon Smith-Njigba hauled in seven touchdown throws from Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith – two in seven-on-seven work and five more in full 11-on-11, per ESPN's Brady Henderson.

Hype is growing around what the former Buckeye and first-round 2023 NFL draft pick can accomplish in his second year with the Seahawks, and there are plans from their coaching staff to utilize him more than he was a year ago.
