Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba to have wrist surgery, sources say

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba will have surgery to repair a broken bone in his wrist but still could be ready for the start of the regular season, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The Seahawks will determine how long Smith-Njigba will be sidelined based on the results of the surgery, which will be performed Tuesday in Philadelphia, sources told Schefter.

Smith-Njigba suffered the injury during Seattle’s preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday when he was tackled near the goal line after a highlight-reel catch in the second quarter.

paulzy,

Literally sitting in emergency now after complications with my wrist surgery 8 weeks later. Hope he has better luck than me.

Best of luck to you - hope you and JSN have equal recovery.

I wanna know how a WR gets a wrist surgery and comes back in time but I hope it’s true.

ghostsinthephotograph,

Yeah I really hope it’s both something he can quickly come back from and they don’t rush him back from. Really looking forward to what that guy can do.
