Seahawks signed WR DK Metcalf to a three-year, $72 million extension through 2025.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the deal includes $58.2 million guaranteed, as well as a $30 million signing bonus. That latter number is apparently a record for a wideout. The agreement also means Metcalf will be a free agent again following his age-28 season. It's a sensible expenditure for one of the league's most explosive big-play threats, one who had a 1,300-yard campaign at age 23. Metcalf, of course, fell below the 1,000-yard threshold amongst Seattle's 2021 Russell Wilson weirdness and injury issues. Despite Metcalf's prodigious talent, a statistical bounce-back is far from guaranteed this season with Geno Smith and Drew Lock vying for quarterback duties. Metcalf is a volatile WR2 whose Dynasty stock badly needs a new quarterback.
