Seattle Seahawks 2026 Fantasy Outlook: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Sam Darnold & a Committee Backfield
Description
Mike Vadala and Cam White read the Seattle Seahawks' 2026 offseason tea leaves and break down what it all means for your fantasy football drafts.
The crew starts with the reigning Super Bowl champions locking up OPOY Jaxon Smith-Njigba on a record extension as the NFL's highest-paid WR and a repeat top-target monster. They dig into Sam Darnold's stable QB outlook, a WR room where Rashid Shaheed and Cooper Kupp round out the group, and the muddiest question in Seattle: a three-way backfield committee among rookie Jadarian Price, George Holani, and Emanuel Wilson while Zach Charbonnet works back from an ACL tear. Plus AJ Barner and Elijah Arroyo at TE, and what the Klint Kubiak-to-Brian Fleury coordinator change means.
Topics covered in this episode: Jaxon Smith-Njigba's outlook, Sam Darnold at QB, the committee backfield, the Charbonnet return, the TE room, and Seahawks redraft and dynasty buys for 2026. Plus, a side bet on how far Seattle goes in 2026.
