Jaxon Smith-Njigba Week 5 Outlook - Giants at Seahawks

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 3rd 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Smith-Njigba has seen his target volume level out after Week 4. He has a 20.8% target share, 1.52 YPRR, and a 21.6% first-read share as Seattle's WR2 and the WR33 in fantasy. Smith-Njigba is second on the team in deep targets and has seen one red zone target. New York has the fourth-highest single-high rate in the NFL (59%). Against single-high, Smith-Njigba has seen his first-read share increase to 25% while the rest of his metrics mirror his overall numbers. The Giants have been relatively untested against slot receivers facing the third-fewest slot targets in the NFL. He will run about 87% of his routes against Cor'Dale Flott, who has been a turnstile, allowing an 81.3% catch rate and 128.4 passer rating. Smith-Njigba should be busy again this week.
