Will Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba finish the 2026 NFL season as the overall WR1 in fantasy football?
Smith-Njigba is in a situation in Seattle that will set him up to produce like the top overall fantasy football wide receiver next season. Despite Seahawks WR Rasheed Shaheed being in line for an increased role in 2026, Seattle’s offense may lean on its passing attack a bit more to begin the year with rookie running back Jadarian Price set to start.
Pro Football Focus lauded Smith-Njigba as being one of the top three candidates to finish as the overall WR1 in fantasy football next season.
”Smith-Njigba must adjust to new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury’s system, though Fleury’s system shares substantial philosophical overlap with former offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak,” PFF’s Nick Bodiford said. “Fleury has extensive experience coaching on defense, special teams and offense, and he is expected to smartly increase the Seahawks’ shifts and motion rates... The Seahawks also plan to feature downfield speed, which should divert safety attention away from Smith-Njigba in the short-to-intermediate field depths.”
Cincinnati Bengals star Ja’Marr Chase and Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua were the other two candidates named alongside Smith-Njigba.
JSN finished with the eighth-most receiving yards in a single season in NFL history last season with 1,793. His track record and anticipated target share in 2026 suggests that he will likely be in the mix to lead the league in receiving again next season.
While Nacua has an edge in rushing yards output, though not major, that factors into him being a strong candidate to be WR1 as well, given the fact that he finished with 1,715 REC yards in 2026, just 78 yards shy of Smith-Njigba.
Chase has led the league in targets for the last two seasons, making the former NFL receiving yards leader another viable candidate, especially with Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow back for the upcoming season.
Nevertheless, JSN will likely hold up against both next season, which fantasy football team managers ought to value when deciding on whether or not to draft him as the first wide receiver off the board in 2026.
