DK Metcalf has reportedly informed the Seattle Seahawks that he wants to be traded to a contending team, but the star wide receiver is apparently sick of dealing with cold weather as well.
Metcalf requested a trade from the Seahawks last week. He cited a desire to play for a contender, despite Seattle finishing 10-7 last season and just barely missing the playoffs. Metcalf may feel even more strongly about a fresh start after the Seahawks traded Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday.
According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, Metcalf wants to play in a warm-weather climate. Russini also reports that Metcalf is seeking a deal worth $30 million annually, and the Seahawks want a package centered around a second-round pick in return.
