DK Metcalf is a big, strong dude. We know that from all the viral pictures of his physique before the Seattle Seahawks drafted him earlier this year.
That’s part of what made San Francisco 49ers defensive back Jaquiski Tartt’s big play on Monday night so great.
Metcalf was bulling forward for what looked like a possible touchdown when Tartt got a hold of the ball and wouldn’t let go. Initially Metcalf was ruled down at the 1-yard line, but replays showed a different story.
Tartt was able to rip the ball out of Metcalf’s hands and fall on it for a fumble recovery.
