Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf snaps back at Shannon Sharpe: ‘Stop questioning me’
The Seattle Seahawks suffered several self-inflicted wounds in their overtime loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers last night. There were a couple more near-disasters that were narrowly averted, as well. Wide receiver D.K. Metcalf’s fumble at the end of regulation was one of them.
Thanks to some quick thinking by Freddie Swain, Seattle was able to spike the ball and get off a game-tying field goal by Jason Meyers.

What was D. K thinking? Why try to play hero 🏈 in that situation?
