Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Jaxon Smith-Njigba turned 163 targets into 1793 yards and 10 touchdowns, while Wan'Dale Robinson converted 140 looks into 1014 yards and 4 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
