Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Monday, March 23, 5:48 AM
Wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the Seattle Seahawks have agreed on a four-year, $168.6 million extension that will make the reigning Offensive Player of the Year the highest-paid receiver in NFL history. The deal comes days after the team exercised Smith-Njigba's fifth-year option and includes over $120 million in guaranteed money, also a record according to NFL Insider Adam Schefter. A first-round pick in 2023, Smith-Njigba led the league with 1,793 receiving yards en route to a memorable Super Bowl-winning season. He is now tied to Seattle through the 2031 season, earning the kind of money that was reserved exclusively for quarterbacks only a few short years ago.

Malik Nabers News
Monday, March 30, 4:23 PM
New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is "hopeful" that wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) will be "ready from the jump" for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season in September, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. "Like I always say, we'll see," Schoen said. "As long as there's not a setback or whatever it may be, optimistic Week 1, he'll be ready. But again, you just never tell with these things and how they're going to react or if there's any setbacks. But he's in a good spot right now mentally and physically." Nabers actually has a chance to be good to go for Week 1 since he suffered his torn ACL in his right knee way back in Week 4 in 2025. Fantasy managers will have a better read on the former sixth overall pick's availability for the coming season once training camp gets underway in late July. Despite coming off a major knee injury, the 22-year-old has youth on his side and should continue to have high-end WR1 upside in fantasy with young QB Jaxson Dart after he caught 127 passes for 1,475 yards and nine touchdowns in his first 19 NFL games.
