The big question right now in Kansas City is who will replace Tyreek Hill? After six seasons, the Chiefs decided to part ways with the speedy wideout, trading him to the Miami Dolphins for a large haul of draft picks.
One fan took the initiative following the blockbuster trade to ask Seahawks star DK Metcalf if he was interested in playing for the Chiefs. The Pro Bowl wideout didn't seem all too fond of the idea.
The fan told Metcalf on Twitter that "the door is still open in KC," before the All-Pro shut down the fan with a hilarious response, telling him that he's not interested.
"Better close it," Metcalf said to the fan on Twitter Wednesday night. "Heard it get cold at night."
Metcalf is in the final year of his rookie contract with Seattle and even if he did want to play for the Cheifs, he would have little to no say on where he lands if the Seahawks were to trade him. According to Pete Carroll, they are doing "everything they can" to give their All-Pro receiver an extension.
"It's really important to us," Carroll said during an interview on a Seattle radio station. "We love him. He maybe will go down as one of the great draft picks we've ever had here. We are going to do everything we can to get it done."
Not a good sign for Chiefs fans, but there is still hope they can find Hill's replacement. In one of the deepest wide receiver drafts we've had in a while, GM Brett Veach will have a lot of young and talented guys that can become Patrick Mahomes newest deep threat, though filling Hills shoes will be a tough task.
