Related Topics: DK Metcalf, Pete Carroll

The good news for Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf is that he did not tear his ACL or appear to have a catastrophic injury as initially feared when he was carted off from Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

The bad news? Well we still don’t know the full extent of how good the good news is. Metcalf still has an injured patellar tendon. There isn’t any word yet on how much time he’ll miss, but the best possible discovery is that surgery is not required.

Pete Carroll tells @TheMikeSalk and @BrockHuard that DK Metcalf won't need surgery.
