The Seattle Seahawks added some receiving depth ahead of the 2025 NFL trade deadline, acquiring speedy wideout Rashid Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints in exchange for fourth-and-fifth-round picks in the 2026 draft.

Anyone who watched Seattle's offense put up 38 points in their blowout win over the Washington Commanders Sunday night -- despite missing WR2 Cooper Kupp, among others -- could easily mistake Shaheed as a pure luxury. He was more of a necessity, even if not a glaring one.

Rashid Shaheed's former teammate, Chris Olave, is likely not happy with seeing him go after a trade sent him to the Seahawks.

Columnist Jim Moore is starting to become a Seahawks believer after Sunday’s dominant win over the Washington Commanders.

Njigba was by far the best wide receiver in fantasy football before this deal. With the way Shaheed can stretch the field, Njigba will only have more room to operate, which is scary to think about. He's the unquestioned 2025 fantasy football WR1.

ESPN's Adam Schefter weighed in on the Seattle Seahawks ahead of the trade deadline and named them as a team to watch moving forward. Schefter isn't the only one who has hinted the Seahawks could have an exciting deadline.

Going by one advanced stat, the 2025 Seahawks are one of the most impressive teams to come along in the last 50 years. According to Aaron Schatz, only three NFL teams since 1978 have had a better DVOA through eight games than Seattle has right now - and all three of them eventually made it to the Super Bowl.
