Seahawks Lock Up Smith-Njigba, Rams Next

0:00On March 23rd, the Seattle Seahawks just locked up wide receiver Jackson Smith and Jigba with a 4-year extension worth 168 million, $600,000, making him the highest paid receiver in the NFL right now. Both Smith and Jigba and Los Angeles Ramstar, Puka Nakua, came into the league as part of the 2023 draft class and they both leveled. Up big time since then, putting pressure on teams to reset the wide receiver market this offseason, fans and analysts are buzzing about what this means for Nakua, who's turned into a key piece for the Rams, with many expecting his next deal to push, the bar even higher or at least match it closely. Earlier this week, the Seahawks moved first on their extension, highlighting Smith and Jigba's role as their top offensive thread while the Rams still have moves to make before training camp. Keep an eye on Los Angeles as they sort out in the Kua's future, whether that's a massive new contract or something else, because the wide receiver paydays are only getting bigger from here.
