DK Metcalf is traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers and has agreed a new five -year contract of $ 150 million with its new team.
Wide recipient Metcalf has submitted a trade request to come from Seattle and has now landed with his new team, while the Seahawks get a pick of the second round 2025 as part of the deal.
The contract of $ 150 million is the largest in the franchise history of Steelers and sees Metcalf couples with George Pickens in a frightening WR duo.
Pittsburgh will then have to close their attack by deciding on a new quarterback, with the current QB1 Russell Wilson on his way to a free desk.
In recent days, Metcalf had been shot by the Front Office of Seahawks because of his constant desire to get rid of the schedule.
General Manager John Schneider only hit the timing of the trade request of the broad recipient, alone Hours after the Seahawks announced that they would cut colleague -Wideout Tyler Lockett.

Lockett and Metcalf were together in Seattle for six seasons, with the couple in the Pacific Northwest in their time one of the fierce Wide receiver duos of the NFL.
Whether the release of Lockett was the direct cause for Metcalf who wanted to play for another team was unclear. What is not cloudy is that Schneider is dissatisfied with him.
“Yes, probably not intentionally but very disappointed in the timing,” Schneider said via Seattle Sports 710. “We wanted this to be a very special day, we wanted it to be Tyler Lockett Day.
'We have had CAP victims, very famous, extremely important legends that have been cap-casuality individuals that we could probably have treated a little differently in the past.
'So we wanted Tyler's situation as stylish as we can, so yes, we were all very excited to have this really nice day for Tyler to celebrate Tyler. Yes, I would lie – I felt bad for Tyler. You put [on the] TVS, [it’s] Everything about DK instead of Tyler Lockett. '
In Seattle, Jaxon Smith-Njigba seems to be the sitting top receiver for 2025 with many options for the team to strengthen their widely received corps.
