Seahawks General Manager John Schneider confirmed that the team is exploring a trade involving receiver D.K. Metcalf, who has expressed his desire to leave the franchise. According to Schneider, the team is talking to “a ton of teams” about potential deals and wants to acquire draft picks before considering any move.
Schneider stated that the organization’s priority is to find an ideal solution for both the player’s future and the team’s needs. He emphasized that the team’s responsibility is to do what’s best for the organization, while also prioritizing Metcalf’s well-being.
The fact that Schneider used the phrase “worst-case scenario” suggests that a trade may be imminent. If Metcalf were to remain with the Seahawks, it could potentially hinder the team’s future prospects, according to Schneider.
