“Drug Test Confirmed”: A Day After All-Star Heroics, Jumping DK Metcalf Hit With Sudden Validation Demand

The NFL is taking no chances even during the offseason. The Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf put up an insane performance at the NBA celebrity All-star game. And now, he has received a validation request from the league. This also comes days after a video of his insane jump went viral on social media.

A parody account of the NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe shared a video of an insane Metcalf jump just a couple of days ago. And the wide receiver has confirmed what the parody account predicted while sharing the video.

DK Metcalf gets a validation request from the NFL

DK Metcalf will go through an NFL drug test soon. The wide receiver has shown insane athletic abilities in the past couple of days and the league wants to make sure he doesn’t have any PED in his blood. The Seahawks star confirmed the drug test by a simple three-word tweet.

“Drug test confirmed,” Metcalf tweeted in response to a Shannon Sharpe parody account video.

The parody account shared a video on Saturday in which Metcalf catches a football with a pretty solid high jump. And the account predicted that the league would hit the wide receiver with a drug test request pretty soon. And that is exactly what happened according to Metcalf himself.

On the same day, Metcalf showed off his athletic abilities at the NBA celebrity All-star game. Maybe that is what has triggered the suspicion of the league. But a drug test in the offseason sure has caught everyone by surprise. 

The drug test request catches the NFL world by surprise 

The NFL world is surprised with the league’s request for a drug test. Many fans are asking the NFL if they think there is a drug to make someone jump that high. Some have even suggested that the league should pay the athletes every time the test comes out negative. Here are some fan reactions.

This fan wants to know the kind of drug that can make someone jump that high.

Another fan has essentially the same question.

This fan has a way to make the drug test fairer.

Another fan certainly doesn’t think the jump video is fake.

DK Metcalf put up an MVP performance in the NBA Celebrity All-star game on Saturday night. The wide receiver hit 20 points in the game along with 10 rebounds and four blocks. He led Dwyane Wade’s team to a 81-78 win over the Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith’s team. And in doing so, Metcalf also bagged the MVP.

While drug tests have become a part of an athlete’s life, this one has caught everyone by surprise. That is partly due to its timing in the NFL offseason. Is the league seriously considering this?
