Seahawks star receiver D.K. Metcalf requests trade
D.K. Metcalf wants out of Seattle.
A person with knowledge of the decision told the Associated Press that the longtime Seahawks wide receiver asked for a trade. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the request was not announced publicly.
Metcalf, a two-time Pro Bowler, has caught 438 passes for 6,324 yards and 48 touchdowns in six seasons with the Seahawks.
The 27-year-old has one year remaining on his current contract, which has three voidable seasons after 2025. He’s currently scheduled to count nearly $32 million against the salary cap next year.
Metcalf’s request was made public on the same day Seattle cut veteran wide receiver Tyler Lockett in a salary cap-saving move.
