Seahawks’ DK Metcalf Reportedly Hit Teammate with Helmet During Fight in Practice
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf swung his helmet and connected with the top of teammate K’Von Wallace’s helmeted head amid a Wednesday training camp skirmish that NFL Network cameras caught in the background of a televised segment.
Wallace appeared to be acting as peacemaker between Metcalf and cornerback Tre Brown and simply found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic provided the context and lead-in to the hit.
“The fisticuffs began earlier in the day. Brown engaged in pushing and shoving with receiver Jake Bobo, who ended up losing his helmet. Brown punched Bobo in the face, and there appeared to be blood on the receiver’s jersey after the scrum.
“In the next drill, linebacker Tyrel Dodson and tight end Pharoah Brown shoved each other and got tangled up during a goal line drill. Brown seemed upset that Dodson hit running back Ken Walker III after the play was finished. The very next snap led to the Metcalf and Brown fight.”
An NFL Network clip that appeared on X shows Metcalf and Brown arguing before the wideout charged the defensive back and swung his helmet. The object hit the top of safety Wallace’s helmet, which was covered with a soft-shell Guardian Cap. Per Dugar, Wallace appeared uninjured and was even able to finish practice.
Seahawks first-year head coach Mike Macdonald spoke with Tom Pelissero of NFL Network after the fight and had this to say when the insider asked him about the line between intensity and competition versus something like an incident seen Thursday (40-second mark).
