Seattle Seahawks fans wanted one of the team’s best players, DK Metcalf, to find employment elsewhere after another outburst from the wide receiver, this time against the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football.
Metcalf was covered on a second-quarter play by Chicago’s Tyrique Stevenson, getting tangled after blocking one another.
After the play ended, the two had choice words for each other, with Metcalf putting his hands, and other body parts on Stevenson.
Metcalf shoves Stevenson in the face twice at the end of the play, before putting his finger in the face of the Chicago defensive back, and concluding the confrontation by headbutting him.
Bears defensive lineman Demarcus Walker separated the two before drawing the ire of Metcalf himself and receiving a shove from the Seahawks receiver.
Metcalf was assessed two personal-foul penalties from the incident, but was allowed to stay in the game.

‘We gotta get DK Metcalf on another team man.’
‘I’m a little surprised that didn’t get DK Metcalf tossed,’ NFL reporter Albert Breer said.
‘Oh no please don’t make me read another week of DK Metcalf trade tweets.’

The Seahawks are still in playoff contention heading into Sunday’s slate of NFL games, needing two Rams’ losses to make the postseason.
