The Seahawks had one last major order of business to attend to off the field before the 2022 season began. On Thursday, the team checked that item off their list, signing wide receiver DK Metcalf to a three-year contract extension.
Metcalf’s $72 million deal makes him one of the top-10 highest paid receivers in the NFL and also sets him up to cash in again while he’s still relatively young. Seattle got a good price for an exceptional talent at a critical position, making it a fair deal all around.
No negotiation is ever a guarantee, but coming to an agreement always made sense for both sides.
