One of the most exciting yet simultaneously underrated players in the NFL of the late 2010s and early 2020s has been D.K. Metcalf, the former Mississippi star who had an even 900 Receiving Yards as a rookie for the Seahawks in 2019.

The Wide Receiver has continued production since with a 1,301 Yard/10 TD campaign in 2020 that gave him his first Pro Bowl.  Afterward, Metcalf had two more four-digit receiving yard years, and he collected his second Pro Bowl in 2023.

After another solid year in 2024, where he was eight yards short of 1,000, he was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers.  With Seattle, Metcalf compiled 6,324 Yards with 48 Touchdowns.
