On top of that, ESPN reports the Steelers and Metcalf agreeing to a five-year, $150 million contract to keep him with the team long-term.

The  have reportedly sent a 2025 second-round pick to the Seahawks in exchange for Metcalf, per ESPN. They will also be swapping 2025 sixth- and seventh-round picks.

Geno Smith was reunited with Pete Carroll after the Seahawks sent him to the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for a 2025 third-round pick.

It’s a new-look Seahawks squad that has some good draft capital as well as young pieces like running backs Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnett and wide receiver Jaxson Smith-Njigba to build around.

For the Steelers, their next big acquisition will be their quarterback for the 2025 campaign.

Last season, it was time split with Justin Fields and Russell Wilson, the latter of whom was rehabbing from injury and was given his starting job back once healthy. Head coach Mike Tomlin once again led his squad to a playoff berth despite mediocre offensive production, though it didn’t last long with a Wild Card Round exit.

With the 27-year-old Metcalf locked up for years to come, along with other solid talent on offense, the Steelers will be hoping to lock down a signal-caller very soon. Wilson and Fields are available as well as other free agent options like Sam Darnold, Jameis Winston and Aaron Rodgers, who is expected to be released by the Jets on March 12 when the new league year begins.

In his sixth NFL season last year, Metcalf tallied 66 catches (108 targets) for 992 yards with five touchdowns over 15 games (12 starts).

Metcalf has totaled three 1,000-yard seasons over his career and back-to-back double-digit touchdown campaigns in 2020 and 2021.
