Seahawks' Top Receivers Ready to Dominate | NFL News

On September 2nd, alright, let's talk about the Seattle Seahawks receiving core heading

into the 2026 season.

Even without Kenneth Walker, the weapon Sam Donald has at his disposal are pretty potent.

We're talking about Jackson Smith and Jigba, who's being called arguably the best receiver

in the league, and the veteran Cooper Cup who still knows how.

To get open and make plays, then there's Rashid Shaheed.

He's transitioning from a special team standout to a real offensive threat in 2026.

These guys, along with others like Tori Horton, are looking good, but how do they stack

up against the rest of the NFL?

According to CBS Sports, the Seahawks receiver room is ranked sixth overall out of 32

teams.

That's a pretty solid spot, especially considering the praise for J.S. and Shaheed's

deep threat ability.

The article notes that injuries further down the death chart kept them from ranking even

higher.

With a new offensive coordinator, Brian Flurry, and Sam Donald back at quarterback, there's

a good chance this passing game can really move the ball.

J.S.N. will draw a lot of attention, which should open things up for Shaheed and Cup,

and potentially even Horton if he stays healthy.

So while J.S.N. is the main attraction, Cup's veteran smarts and Shaheed's speed give

the Seahawks multiple ways to attack defenses.

A sixth ranked receiver group is definitely something fans can be excited about heading

into the season.
