With Sam Darnold out for a few weeks, this is a clear downgrade for Smith-Njigba. We saw Drew Lock enter in relief and get a 46-yard touchdown to JSN, but the overall efficiency of Lock is not something we can count on week in and week out.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Smith-Njigba's upside capped by Darnold's absence and Lock's unreliable efficiency.

With Sam Darnold out for a few weeks, Smith-Njigba faces a clear downgrade at quarterback. Drew Lock entered in relief and threw a 46-yard touchdown to JSN, but the source notes that Lock's overall efficiency is not something to count on week in and week out. Seattle has good running backs and a great defense; they could opt for straightforward, lower-variance games with Lock at quarterback, less passing and more rushing.
