The Seattle Seahawks have a bonafide star in the making with second-year wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The former Ohio State standout is on quite a heater lately. In his last two games, prior to Week 12, he had logged 17 receptions for 290 yards and two touchdowns.
Against the Arizona Cardinals today, he is not showing any signs of slowing down. JSN is leading the team in both receptions and receiving yards, hauling in all four passes tossed his way for 62-yards. Of his output thus far, 46 of his yards came on this massive screen pass to set the Seahawks up nicely at Arizona’s goal line.
JSN takes the pass and takes it all the way inside the 5-yard line!

Two plays later, JSN found his way into the end zone for his 64th reception of the season… which is now a career-best for the young stud.
Additionally, with 62 yards, JSN is over halfway there to making history. We wrote before the game started how if JSN reaches 100 yards through the air, he will join DK Metcalf as the only Seahawks to ever accomplish such a feat through three-straight games.
At the moment, Seattle leads Arizona 7-3 at the start of the third quarter. Be sure to follow @TheSeahawksWire and @KoleMusgrove23 for more highlights, analysis and updates.
