Jaxon Smith-Njigba played a pivotal role in the Seattle Seahawks’ Super Bowl-winning run during the 2025 season, and on Monday, he got paid for his efforts.

Smith-Njigba and the Seahawks agreed to a four-year, $168.6 million contract extension with $120 million guaranteed, according to multiple reports. He will now become the highest-paid receiver in NFL history with a $42.15 million annual average value of the contract.

The Seahawks selected Smith-Njigba in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Ohio State. He didn’t turn into a full-time starting receiver until the 2024 season, when he earned his first Pro Bowl selection.

Smith-Njigba’s value to the team grew exponentially in 2025. He had 119 catches for 1,793 yards and 10 touchdowns with Sam Darnold slinging him the pill. The receiving yardage total led the NFL.

The 2025 season was the first year he was able to compete in the playoffs. In three games, he had 17 catches for 199 yards and two touchdowns. He had four catches for 27 yards in Super Bowl LX against the New England Patriots, but he didn’t really need to do much for the team to win.

Smith-Njigba will enter his fourth NFL season with a different offensive coordinator but a similar roster on offense.

Though Klint Kubiak took the Las Vegas Raiders’ head-coaching job, the team brought back Rashid Shaheed, Josh Jones and Charles Cross.

Democratic congressional candidate Jack Schlossberg, the grandson of the late former President John F. Kennedy, admitted in an interview Thursday that President Donald Trump "flipped the script" on Democrats in being able to reach young voters.

"I disagree with President Trump a lot," Schlossberg told Fortune, but conceded that the president gets people "fired up" about politics.

Schlossberg is running for Congress in New York's 12th Congressional District to replace retiring Rep. Jerry Nadler. 

The Kennedy heir said Trump "poached" young men from the Democratic Party.

"I think that they’re not stupid, those young men, and I give President Trump a lot of credit for being able to influence new meeting environments and make politics accessible," he told Fortune.

Schlossberg also shared he went to Wilmington to help the Biden campaign with its social media and was repeatedly told "no."

"Anyway, long story short, I quit the campaign because I thought if I don’t do this my way, I’m not going to be able to live with myself," he said. "A month later, I got a call from the campaign being like, ‘Hey, can you come back and make videos for us?'"

Former President Joe Biden's office did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Schlossberg admitted at Fortune's CEO Initiative dinner that the GOP had embraced "modernity," according to the magazine.

"The Republican Party has embraced modernity in a way that the Democratic Party used to own," he said. "Whether it’s space, whether it’s the AI race, crypto, investing in new technologies — the Democratic Party has been way anti-everything, and anti-business in particular. Anti-modernity. Trump has flipped the script."

JFK's grandson, known for his at-times bizarre use of social media, recently defended targeting Vice President JD Vance's wife, Usha, in a post in which he superimposed his face on one of Vance's children.

"I think what's crossing a line is the propaganda that we see issued every single day by the White House and Vance," Schlossberg told CBS in an interview in early March. "So, what are we going to do, hold back? Hold back on our sense of humor and not tease them, make fun of them back?"

He added, "First of all, I don't think anyone was seriously thinking that I meant that we did actually have a love child! You can point at anything I posted. I will point you back at a president who shares pictures of himself bombing U.S. citizens with fecal matter. This is a new era we're living in."
