Overview

  • Metcalf told reporters he is treating Sunday’s meeting with Seattle as just another game, saying, “Y’all gonna make it a big deal, but I’m not.”
  • He noted his practice history with Seahawks cornerbacks Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen and said he expects Coach Macdonald to have them ready.
  • After requesting a move following the 2024 season, Metcalf was traded to Pittsburgh in March and signed a five-year, $150 million extension.
  • In his Steelers debut, he posted four receptions for 83 yards, including an 11-yard deflected catch that set up Chris Boswell’s 60-yard go-ahead kick in a 34-32 win over the Jets.
  • Aaron Rodgers praised Metcalf’s preparation and leadership, drawing parallels to the trusted receivers from his Green Bay years such as Davante Adams.
