The Seattle Seahawks are entertaining the idea of moving star wide receiver DK Metcalf, but they do not intend to engage in trade talks throughout the entire offseason.
Metcalf officially requested a trade from the Seahawks on Wednesday. He reportedly does not feel that the team is close enough to contention and wants to play for a team with a better chance to win a Super Bowl. Metcalf is also entering the final year of his contract, so he likely wants a new deal.
Seahawks general manager John Schneider discussed Metcalf’s trade request during an appearance on Seattle Sports 710 Thursday night. Schneider said the relationship between Metcalf and the team is “in a cordial, professional place.” The GM added that Metcalf understands Seattle may not be able to find a suitable trade.
Schneider also said the NFL Draft is the deadline for a Metcalf trade to be agreed upon.
