The Seattle Seahawks obliterated the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday night in the NFC Divisional playoff, and their victories came off the field as well as on it.

Canaan Smith-Njigba, the older brother of Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, took to social media after the game to taunt 49ers cornerback Deommodore Lenoir after Seattle’s 41-6 victory at Lumen Field in Seattle, Wash. Lenoir lost his cool and headbutted Smith-Njigba during the third quarter of the game, and that definitely did not go unnoticed.

“Jax always wanted a little brother to bully. Welcome to the family,” Canaan posted on X while tagging Lenoir.

Smith-Njigba did not even have to do much during the game, as he caught just three passes for 19 yards, though one of them was for a touchdown. The wide receiver did not really need to take on a starring role considering the Seahawks jumped out to a 17-point first quarter lead.

Canaan Smith-Njigba has pursued a baseball career and is currently a free agent. He certainly is not falling short in the trash-talking department.
