JSN wasn’t the primary catalyst, but he did contribute with three catches for 19 yards and the lone TD for his night. The score helped illustrate Seattle’s dominance, even as his performance drew some extracurricular attention and social media chatter after the game. 🥳🏈
That chatter came from JSN’s brother, Canaan Smith-Njigba, who blasted the 49ers’ Deommodore Lenoir on social media after the win. “Jax always wanted a little brother to bully. welcome to the family, @Dmo_lenoir,” Canaan wrote, later referencing Lenoir as a JSN fan in another post. The two had traded barbs during the game, including a late headbutt that reflected the intensity on the field. 💬💥
Seattle’s star of the night was Kenneth Walker III, who ripped off 116 yards and three touchdowns on 19 carries, plus 29 rushing yards on three receptions. His breakout performance underscored the Seahawks’ overall dominance even if Darnold or JSN weren’t producing at peak level. 🏃♂️💨
With the victory, Seattle advances and will wait for the winner of the Los Angeles Rams vs. Chicago Bears game to determine their opponent in the NFC Championship. The victory kept Seattle’s momentum rolling as they chase a potential shot at the conference title. 🗝️🏆 The season’s next chapter begins soon for the Seahawks. ⏳
