San Francisco 49ers cornerback Deommodore Lenoir went on a mini trash-talking tour after shutting down Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf to the point of visible frustration on Thursday.
The first stop happened in the locker room after the Niners’ 36-24 victory. Metcalf’s three-catch, 48-yard evening clearly pissed off the Seattle receiver. At one point in the game, he took the headset off a coach and yelled at the people on the other end of the call, presumably those in the Seahawks’ coaching booth. When a reporter asked Lenoir about the emotional outbursts Metcalf displayed, the cornerback replied with a confident reference to his nickname: the Hyena.
