3 potential 2023 landing spots for Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf

Seahawks losing DK Metcalf to the Indianapolis Colts?

The Colts might watch what the Titans are doing and decide to keep pace in the AFC South (still not exactly sure how the Indianapolis team is considered to be a part of the south but it is what it is, I imagine) they need a very good receiver too. The Colts did for several years with T.Y. Hilton but he is an older receiver now and not even on the Colts roster. Indy needs to find a receiver to replace Hilton and that could be Metcalf.

The current group of Colts receivers aren’t going to make any defense shudder but adding Metcalf and putting him in a mix with players like Michael Pittman, Jr. might. And Indy has the same issue the Titans do. Both teams have great running backs but not great receivers to pair them with. Metcalf along with Jonathan Taylor gives the Colts an extremely formidable offensive duo.

The Colts also added Matt Ryan this offseason and he is signed through 2023. Ryan will be 38 years old when the 2023 season begins so the Colts could be in win-now mode. This is especially true as Taylor is also signed through 2023. Adding Metcalf gives Indy their best chance to win a Super Bowl in years.

My hope, of course, is that Metcalf doesn’t go anywhere and stays with the Seahawks for many years to come. But his holding out of mandatory minicamp might not bode well for getting a deal done. Plus, Metcalf might see that his production isn’t going to be as good as he wants in the next two years with a quarterback that isn’t established in Seattle. He might leave simply because he doesn’t want to have two underperforming seasons.
