From the article

Jaxon Smith-Njigba had a career year in 2025, and historically those do not repeat; expecting regression closer to his 2024 season. Sam Darnold is still the QB (who, despite being tied to JSN, still finished outside the top 12 QBs), Rasheed Shaheed has had an offseason with the team and should be more involved on offense.

JSN's career year unlikely to repeat with Darnold at QB and Shaheed more involved.

Avery Thrasher expects regression from Jaxon Smith-Njigba's career year in 2025; historically career years do not repeat. Sam Darnold is still the QB (who, despite being tied to JSN, still finished outside the top 12 QBs), Rasheed Shaheed has had an offseason with the team and should be more involved, Klint Kubiak is gone, and opposing defenses will prioritize stopping him. Thrasher prefers Amon-Ra St. Brown or CeeDee Lamb in that same range tied to much stronger QB play and offensive scheme.
