With the NFL’s free agency period having opened on Mar. 11, there have been some serious moves made. My beloved Super Bowl LX champion team, the Seattle Seahawks, have kept my pulse elevated since these floodgates opened.
While the Hawks may have taken some hits with Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III leaving for (shudder) the Kansas City Chiefs, as well as Coby Bryant and Boye Mafe parting ways, one thing makes it all okay. Jaxon Smith-Njigba (JSN) inked a multi-year extension with the Seahawks.
This record-setting contract of $168.6 million over four years, makes JSN the highest-paid wide receiver in the history of the NFL. But what else should be expected from the Offensive Player of the Year, Seahawks record-setter, and All-Pro player? Not to mention the franchise record he maintains of 119 catches for a total of 1,793 yards.
After a dominant season, JSN shared one goal of what’s next as he extends his term with the Seahawks:
“The only thing better than one Super Bowl is two.” Amen.
