DeMeco Ryans shouts out emerging Seahawks superstar

Coming off of their Week 6 bye, the Houston Texans have had some extra time to prepare for the Seattle Seahawks, and considering how well third-year wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba has played during the 2025 season, they may need it.

Despite the fact that the Seahawks rank dead last in the NFL in pass rate (50.3%) through six weeks of action, Smith-Njigba leads the league in receiving by a whopping 80 yards heading into Week 7. JSN is already over halfway to the Seahawks single-season receiving yardage record, and he's on pace to finish the year with 1,972 receiving yards, which would be 8 more than Calvin Johnson's record-setting 2012 campaign.
