The scariest thing about D.K. Metcalf is that he’s only going to get better with more time in the NFL. His combination of freakish size and obscene athleticism has already made him one of the game’s most difficult to defend wide receivers. Once he really begins to master the finer points of playing his position he’ll be an unstoppable force.
Today, Metcalf mixed things up by putting in some work with Seahawks defensive line coach Clint Hurtt, presumably to improve at beating press coverage.
Very excited to see DK Metcalf get snaps at LEO defensive end this season. That’s gotta be what he and DL coach Clint Hurtt are working on pic.twitter.com/hoJ38hVQmN

Metcalf also made a highlight-reel kind of catch over the top with Ahkello Witherspoon defending him.
