RENTON, Wash. -- Some six months before they kicked off the most prolific season of any quarterback-wide receiver duo in Seattle Seahawks history, DK Metcalf reluctantly followed Russell Wilson into the shallow end of a swimming pool.
They had recently arrived in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, for a late-winter vacation that preceded a longer stay at Wilson's offseason home in San Diego. At the top of the agenda for the month and a half they spent together was training, but they also wanted to have fun. They would golf, shoot hoops, soak up sun and -- though Metcalf didn't know it at the time -- swim.
