Jaxon Smith-Njigba Has Unappealing Matchup In Week 9
1 year agoSeattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba will be hard-pressed to keep his two-game touchdown streak alive in Week 9. On Sunday, the Seahawks are up against the top defense of the Baltimore Ravens, who have allowed the second-fewest passing touchdowns in the league. Fellow receivers DK Metcalf (hip) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring) each had some limitations in practice this week, but are entering the weekend with no designations. A tag on either might have given the rookie a boost in a vacuum, but again, the Ravens' stifling secondary makes it difficult to trust Smith-Njigba to replicate his success from the last two weeks. JSN may be a flex play in deep leagues or for managers suffering bye-week woes, but he is otherwise best left on the bench in Week 9.
