Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba returns to Super Bowl after
concussion evaluation

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) --- Seattle Seahawks star wide receiver Jaxon
Smith-Njigba returned in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl 60 after being taken
to the locker room in the third quarter to be evaluated for a concussion.
Smith-Njigba, the AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year, appeared to get banged
up when he was tackled by New England cornerback Marcus Jones on a four-yard
completion midway through the third quarter.
The injury came during a quiet night for Smith-Njigba. The NFL's leader in
yards receiving during the regular season had three catches for 24 yards when
he left the field.
With Smith-Njigba held in check, Cooper Kupp led the Seahawks with six
receptions for 61 yards. Second-year tight end AJ Barner has Seattle's lone
touchdown, a 16-yard score early in the fourth quarter.
