March 23 (UPI) -- The Seattle Seahawks agreed to a $168.6 million contract extension with All-Pro wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, his agency, Win Sports Group, confirmed Monday.
The extension includes $120 million in guarantees and an average annual value of $42.15 million, which will make Smith-Njigba the highest-paid wide receiver in NFL history.
Smith-Njigba, who joined the Seahawks as the No. 20 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, hauled in 119 catches for a league-best 1,793 yards and 10 scores over 17 starts last season. He totaled 282 catches for 3,551 yards and 20 scores through the first 51 appearances of his NFL carer.
He did not miss a game through his first three seasons.
The former Ohio State star caught 17 passes for 199 yards and two scores during the Seahawks' 2025-26 postseason run, which ended with a Super Bowl LX triumph over the New England Patriots.
