Nelson Agholor Gets One-Year Extension

Sunday, February 18, 7:03 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Nelson Agholor is set to run it back with the organization next season. The veteran wideout agreed on a one-year extension with the Ravens on Sunday. If not re-signed by Monday, Agholor was set to become a free agent this offseason. However, the Ravens have decided to bring back Agholor after a solid first season in Baltimore. The 30-year-old hauled in 35 receptions for 381 receiving yards and four touchdowns in 17 games. He should remain a useful option in this passing attack next season.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba News

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Has Quiet Finish

Monday, January 8, 5:25 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught three of his five targets for 14 yards in Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals. The receptions were tied with tight ends Will Dissly and Colby Parkinson for the team lead but made for a quiet end to a modest debut season for the Ohio State product. Selected 20th overall in the 2023 draft, there were hopes that Smith-Njigba would replicate the first-year successes of his former college teammates Garrett Wilson and Christian Olave. As it was, Smith-Njigba proved to be firmly entrenched as the third receiver on Seattle's depth chart and was probably lucky to see the amount of work that he did. His production was also hindered by the routes designed for him, as his average depth of target of 5.8 yards was among the lowest in the league. His rookie year will conclude with 63 receptions for 628 yards and four touchdowns in 17 games.
