Mike Florio Says DK Metcalf Needs to Know If Seattle Seahawks Are “Gonna Take Care Of Him Financially”

The Seattle Seahawks recently concluded their three-day offseason minicamp with the entire squad. The camp was a way of bringing together old and new players of the team in order to work as a cohesive unit. It also allowed coaches to assess the players and start building towards the upcoming season. But WR DK Metcalf was conspicuous by his absence from the camp.

However, as head coach Pete Carroll faced the cameras post the camp, one thing everyone wanted to know was where was DK Metcalf? Was he not present because of ongoing issues with his contract? Analyst Mike Florio tried to analyze why the WR was absent from the team camp.

Mike Florio is of the opinion that Metcalf’s absence is certainly because of his contract negotiation. But it is also up to the team to make him feel comfortable playing at the club. He said, “I just think he needs to know if they’re not gonna take care of him financially, he needs to know. He’s gonna be in a position to have the kind of year that allows him to get a market contract next year.”
