Jaxon Smith-Njigba cleared for Thursday Night Football

Seahawks

Oct 15 · 8:12 AM EDT

The Seahawks left for Denver on Wednesday ahead of their Thursday night game against the Broncos, and held a light practice prior to heading to the airport.

Among those practicing fully on Wednesday was receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who was listed as limited the previous two days because of an ankle injury. Smith-Njigba, who leads the NFL in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns, does not have a game status on the final injury report, meaning he is good to go.

Fantasy Impact:

Start Smith-Njigba confidently as a WR1. Denver’s secondary absences improve the matchup and give Darnold additional upside as a superflex option. Shaheed remains a volatile FLEX whose big-play potential benefits from the injuries.

Seahawks WR Tory Horton’s injury is not considered long-term

Corbin K. Smith

Aug 27 · 6:17 PM EDT

Not a lot of injury updates from Mike Macdonald, per usual. But he did say that Seahawks have ruled out long-term injury for Tory Horton, so that's a big positive.

Related Players: Rashid Shaheed, Cooper Kupp

Fantasy Impact:

The long-term reassurance is helpful but does not establish Horton’s Week 1 availability. Rashid Shaheed remains positioned as Seattle’s primary field-stretching receiver while Horton is sidelined.

Seahawks trade for WR Rashid Shaheed

Pro Football Talk

Nov 04, 2025 · 1:41 PM EST

Seattle’s already strong passing game has just picked up another big-play threat.

The Saints are trading wide receiver Rashid Shaheed to the Seahawks, according to NFL Network.

Fantasy Impact:

Shaheed was a strong trade candidate by many before the deadline and he's now a deep threat for the Seahawks. This likely pushes Horton to the team's WR4 assuming Kupp is back healthy at some point. Horton was just coming off an impressive game against the Commanders with Kupp out. Meanwhile for the Saints, Olave remains at least for now and is the team's WR1, but behind him there are lots of questions as Cook and Vele seem to be next up. Johnson, the Saints TE, looks to be the second target overall in the passing game.

Seahawks plan to release WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling

ESPN

Aug 26, 2025 · 3:50 PM EDT

The Seahawks plan to release wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler on Tuesday.

Valdes-Scantling, 30, had been viewed as a candidate to be traded or released even though Seattle guaranteed him $3 million for 2025.

Fantasy Impact:

MVS played the entire first half of the Seahawks final preseason game, the story pointed out, which wasn't a good sign. But, Valdes-Scantling was outperformed over the summer by rookie fifth-round pick Horton, among others, and his chances of making the 53-man roster as anything but the third receiver seemed slim considering he doesn't play special teams, the story added.
