“I Want to Compete for a Championship” – DK Metcalf Requests Trade from Seahawks
Seattle Seahawks star wide receiver DK Metcalf has officially requested a trade, a source confirmed. The request follows two weeks of discussions, with Metcalf making it clear that he wants to play for a contender.
“I want to compete for a championship,” Metcalf reportedly told those close to him, signaling his desire to move on from Seattle’s current situation.
A key figure in the Seahawks’ offense since being drafted in 2019, Metcalf has been one of the NFL’s most explosive playmakers. Over his five seasons in Seattle, he has recorded over 5,000 receiving yards and 43 touchdowns, solidifying himself as a premier deep threat. However, with the Seahawks in a state of transition, Metcalf appears eager to find a new home where he can compete at the highest level.
Seattle’s front office now faces a crucial decision—whether to honor Metcalf’s request or attempt to mend the situation. Given his talent and production, there is expected to be significant interest across the league. Teams in need of a dominant receiver, particularly those with Super Bowl aspirations, will likely explore trade possibilities in the coming days.
As negotiations unfold, the NFL world will be watching closely to see where one of the league’s top wideouts lands next.
