    Seahawks Midseason Report Card: How Have Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WRs Performed?

    In the midst of their bye week, the Seattle Seahawks find themselves searching for answers in all phases after dropping five of their past six games to plunge into last place in the NFC West. With nine games down and eight left to play, offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb and the Seahawks have had to rely heavily on the passing game thus far, leading to no shortage of opportunities for DK Metcalf, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Tyler Lockett, who have combined to snag 119 passes for 1,592 yards and eight touchdowns. Revisiting the first half of the season, how have Metcalf and Seattle's star-studded receiving corps performed in Grubb's system?

    You gotta feel for Seahawks' JSN after his stellar yet losing effort

    Jaxon Smith-Njigba - easily the standout player of African descent in week 9 of the NFL season - had to endure a bittersweet Sunday as his two touchdowns and 180 receiving yards could not prevent the Seattle Seahawks from going down 26-20 to the LA Rams. Smith-Njigba, who has ties to Sierra Leone, was joined by Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (Tennessee Titans, ties to Nigeria), Chubba Hubbard (Carolina Panthers, ties to Nigeria), Alvin Kamara (New Orleans Saints, ties to Liberia) and Rome Odunze (Chicago Bears, ties to Nigeria) among offensive players to have strong performances.
