Last Thursday’s loss for the Seattle Seahawks to the San Francisco 49ers was a topsy-turvy game for Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf. The box score says he caught just 3 passes (on 11 targets) for 48 yards, but he had a 52-yard touchdown nullified due to a Kenneth Walker III illegal shift penalty, narrowly missed a touchdown at the end of the first half after failing to get both feet inbounds, and then there was the critical fourth quarter interception in which Metcalf and Geno Smith were seemingly not on the same page.
