Corners Battling DK Metcalf, Talented WR Room at Seahawks Camp

DK Metcalf didn’t hesitate to answer after being asked to describe in a few words the cornerbacks he’s been facing every day this summer for Seahawks training camp.

“Just one word: Loaded,” Metcalf says before Tuesday’s practice in Renton, Wash. “Loaded with talent, loaded with dogs. Loaded with people who feel like they have something to prove, not to anybody, but just to themselves.”

Metcalf and his fellow wide receivers—also a loaded position for the Seahawks—have been battling daily with cornerbacks Tre Brown, Michael Jackson, Coby Bryant and rookie Devon Witherspoon, the No. 5 pick in this year’s draft. The competition level will increase once Riq Woolen, last year’s rookie star cornerback, returns to being a full participant at practice.
