In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Nacua pushed the advantage to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard return for a score. Darnold then found Barner in the endzone, and a successful conversion sent the contest into overtime. Although Nacua raced in for his second touchdown in OT, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the game-winning score. Notable Stats Smith-Njigba finished with ninety-six yards and the overtime score. The young star tops the NFL with over 1,500 yards for the season.
