Over the weekend, ESPN’s longtime Jets beat reporter Rich Cimini reported that the Seattle Seahawks are telling inquiring teams that WR D.K. Metcalf is not available via trade.
That is not stopping teams from calling and trying to get him anyway.
In fact, the Seattle Seahawks are said to have turned down the 10th overall pick from the New York Jets in the 2022 NFL Draft for wide receiver DK Metcalf, according to 94WIP’s Howard Eskin.
“The Jets were going to offer, and Seattle knew it, the No. 10 pick in the first round. I’ve been told by multiple people when somebody calls Seattle about D.K. Metcalf (they said) ‘We’re not trading him. We’re not trading him.’ They don’t even take the offer,” Eskin said. “They just say ‘Nope’ and they just shut it right down. You can’t even make an offer right now.” “
The 24-year-old is the hottest NFL name reportedly available for the “right price.”
New York is seemingly making a concerted effort to bring in more offensive weapons to aid in the development of quarterback Zach Wilson, who was the No. 2 overall pick in last year’s draft.
The 10th overall pick originally belonged to Seattle but is owed to New York through the 2020 trade that sent Jamal Adams to the Seahawks.
