The Seattle Seahawks have secured the future of their offense by signing star wide receiver DK Metcalf to a blockbuster $90 million contract extension. The deal, which spans four years, cements Metcalf’s role as a cornerstone of the franchise as they aim for long-term success.
Metcalf, 26, has quickly become one of the NFL’s elite receivers since being drafted by the Seahawks in 2019. Known for his rare combination of speed, size, and athleticism, he has already shattered several franchise records and remains a constant deep threat for opposing defenses. The contract reportedly includes $55 million in guaranteed money, making Metcalf one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the league.
In a statement following the announcement, Metcalf expressed his excitement and commitment to the team: “Seattle has been home since day one, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to continue my journey here. I believe in this team, and I’m ready to help bring a championship to the city.”
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll lauded the extension, calling Metcalf a “game-changer” and praising his work ethic and leadership on and off the field. “DK is the type of player you build a team around, and we’re excited for what the future holds with him leading the way.”
With this signing, the Seahawks have locked in a key piece of their offensive puzzle as they continue to build toward a Super Bowl run. Fans are eagerly awaiting what’s next as Metcalf and quarterback Geno Smith look to keep Seattle competitive in the tough NFC West.
The extension ensures Metcalf will remain in a Seahawks uniform through the prime of his career, as the team looks to maintain its status as a perennial playoff contender.
