Jaxon Smith-Njigba Almost Unstoppable at Seahawks Camp

Tuesday, August 11, 7:52 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was almost unstoppable at training camp last week as the team prepares for the Super Bowl defense in 2026. Smith-Njigba caught multiple touchdown passes from Sam Darnold and received praise from head coach Mike Macdonald, who said, "It was great to see him come alive. Some of those in high-leverage situations, too. There's defensive attention on where he's at all times, too, so for him to be able to make those plays, it's great for the Seahawks, great for him." The reigning AP Offensive Player of the Year is looking to repeat his 2025 performance, when he had 119 catches for 1,793 yards and 10 touchdowns. With a new play caller, things could look schematically different in Seattle, but fantasy managers should expect another big year from Smith-Njigba.

Keon Coleman Continues Strong Start to Bills Camp

Tuesday, August 4, 10:07 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman continued his strong start to training camp during Tuesday's one-on-one period. Rookie Watch reported that Coleman won all four of his reps against cornerback Maxwell Hairston, again using his size and catch radius to make plays at the catch point. The third-year receiver is trying to bounce back after finishing 2025 with 38 receptions for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games. Buffalo added DJ Moore to lead the outside passing game, while Khalil Shakir remains an established target for Josh Allen, so Coleman still has work to do before earning a dependable weekly role. The Bills have praised his improved preparation and understanding of the offense, and his recent camp performances are encouraging. Still, one-on-one drills favor receivers and do not settle the target hierarchy. Coleman is gaining momentum, but fantasy managers should wait to see the progress carry into team periods and preseason games.
