STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Smith-Njigba projected for 1,500 yards, 9 TDs, 108 receptions in 2026.

The source projects Smith-Njigba will finish 2026 with 1,500 receiving yards and nine touchdowns on 108 receptions. This projection is based on his two-season average of 1,462 yards and eight touchdowns on 110 receptions (2024–2025), compared to historical Seahawks benchmarks: Steve Largent averaged 1,319 yards and nine touchdowns per 17 games in his first two 1,000-yard seasons (1978–1979), and Tyler Lockett averaged 1,121 yards and 10 touchdowns per 17-game season in his first two 1,000-yard campaigns (2019–2020). The source notes this projection represents a slight decline from his 2025 peak (1,793 yards, 119 receptions) but maintains elite production.
