In Week 12, one of the biggest questions on every fantasy football manager’s mind was whether or not second-year WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s breakout was the real deal… and he answered emphatically, “Yes!”
[Week 13 Full-PPR Fantasy Rankings: QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | FLEX | D/ST | Kickers]
Over the past three games, Smith-Njigba has taken on a bigger role in the offense, totaling 31 targets, 23 catches, 367 receiving yards and 3 TDs dating back to Week 9. That’s good enough for a ranking like the overall WR5 in its entirety. -PPR scores league formats and is one of only three wide receivers (the others being Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase) to average more than 120 yards per game receiving span.

In Week 13, the Seahawks will face the New York Jets secondary, which hasn’t been the same unit once worth avoiding in fantasy matchups since the departure of defensive-minded former HC Robert Saleh.
