Smith-Njigba brought in four of 10 targets for 27 yards during the Seahawks' 29-13 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl LX on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The star receiver couldn't put together anything resembling the typical caliber of performance that earned him the AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award earlier in the week, as Christian Gonzalez's blanket coverage served to frequently short-circuit the often prolific Sam Darnold-Smith-Njigba connection. Smith-Njigba also exited the game for a spell in the second half to be evaluated for a concussion, but he was able to return shortly thereafter. Smith-Njigba did have a couple of particularly close calls that could have made his night much different, as Gonzalez made an excellent diving breakup of a would-be touchdown pass to the talented wideout and Darnold also missed him running free deep late in the first quarter. Despite the quiet finish to the Super Bowl run, Smith-Njigba will head into the 2026 season as an upper-echelon fantasy asset that will be snapped up in the very early stages of the first round of drafts next summer.

Stevenson rushed the ball seven times for 23 yards in Sunday's 29-13 loss to the Seahawks in Super Bowl 60. He added five receptions on five targets for 40 yards and a touchdown.

EDGE Analysis

Stevenson began the game as a key part of New England's game plan, though the team's inability to maintain drives limited his impact. All seven of his carries came in the first half, and the majority of his production as a pass catcher came with the Patriots down by multiple scores. The highlights of Stevenson's performance were a long reception of 13 yards and a seven-yard touchdown grab just before the two-minute warning. Stevenson fended off TreVeyon Henderson as the lead back in 2025, though Stevenson may lose a bit more of his volume, as the duo projects to split the Patriots' backfield again in 2026.

Maye completed 27 of 43 passes for 295 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 29-13 loss in the Super Bowl to the Seahawks. He added five rushes for 37 yards and also lost a fumble.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear if a nagging shoulder injury impacted Maye's performance, but he was stymied by Seattle's defense for the vast majority of Super Bowl 60. He had 60 passing yards through three quarters, and his most meaningful contribution to the game came on consecutive passes early in the final quarter, with the Patriots down three scores, when he found Mack Hollins for gains of 24 and 35 yards -- the latter of which went for a touchdown. Maye's performance was otherwise dominated by negative plays, as he was sacked six times for a loss of 43 yards, and he also turned the ball over three times - two of which led directly to touchdowns for the Seahawks. Though it was a disappointing close to the season, Maye had a breakout sophomore campaign by posting a 31:8 TD:INT while averaging 8.9 yards per attempt across 17 regular-season games.

Walker rushed 27 times for 135 yards and brought in two of four targets for 26 yards during the Seahawks' 29-13 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl LX on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Walker and the rest of the Seahawks' offense started the game off in relative modest fashion, but the star running back kickstarted his night in earnest when he ripped off 30- and 29-yard runs during Seattle's first possession of the second quarter. Walker would subsequently find fairly consistent running room against a typically stingy Patriots front seven, recording another four runs of seven or more yards. Walker also had a 49-yard touchdown run just before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter that was nullified by an offensive holding penalty, but he handled his workhorse role, which also saw him record a 20-yard reception, with aplomb. Walker's exploits earned him the Super Bowl MVP and capped off an impressive three-game postseason run, one that saw him also record a 116-yard, three-touchdown effort in the divisional-round win over the 49ers and supplement his production on the ground with 104 receiving yards on nine receptions over the trio of contests.

Darnold completed 19 of 38 passes for 202 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions and added two rushes for five yards during the Seahawks' 29-13 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl LX on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Both quarterbacks were under pressure early and often from the talented opposing defenses, but for three-plus quarters, Darnold handled the adversity slightly more effectively than the much younger Drake Maye. Darnold managed to take just one sack while throwing the ball away in the nick of time on several occasions, and he was able to string together enough positive plays through the air to keep the chains moving when Kenneth Walker wasn't knifing through New England's front. Darnold relied most on Cooper Kupp and AJ Barner, with the former helping to make up for the blanket coverage on Jaxon Smith-Njigba and his brief second-half absence to be evaluated for a possible concussion. Barner was also on the receiving end of Darnold's one touchdown pass, which came from 16 yards out early in the fourth quarter. Just as important, the veteran signal-caller managed to close out a turnover-free postseason after having committed 20 in 17 regular-season contests during his 2025 Seahawks debut campaign.

Smith-Njigba (head) returned in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith-Njigba was taken to the locker room to be evaluated for a possible concussion, but has cleared to return and was back on the field for the Seahawks early in the fourth quarter. He caught three passes on nine targets for 24 yards prior to his exit.

Smith-Njigba is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith-Njigba was evaluated by medical staff after his helmet bounced off the turf, and he's gone to the locker room to undergo further testing to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Cooper Kupp, Rashid Shaheed, AJ Barner and Kenneth Walker will step into larger roles in the passing game for as long as Smith-Njigba is out of the game.

Knight is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Super Bowl LX against the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Knight left the game in the third quarter after suffering a potential head injury. The strongside linebacker is a rotational part of the Seahawks' defensive and special teams units. If the 25-year-old cannot return to the game, starter Drake Thomas will likely need to take on a further increased snap share.

Ouzts (neck) is inactive for Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ouzts was limited in all three practices this past week due to a lingering neck injury, but he has not been cleared by the medical staff to play in Sunday's Super Bowl. Brady Russell will be the Seahawks' fullback in Ouzts' absence.

Milroe (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Seahawks' emergency third quarterback for Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

As the emergency third quarterback, Milroe is not allowed to play in Super Bowl LX unless both Sam Darnold and Drew Lock were to leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection.
