Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Monday that Metcalf suffered a minor MCL sprain. Despite the injury, Macdonald did not rule Metcalf out for Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills.
“He’s got a minor MCL,” Macdonald said. “Timeline, I’m not sure, it doesn’t look like it’s a long-term injury. You guys know DK, we know DK, he’s going to probably do anything humanly possible to be able to play in this game, I would imagine. We’ll assess as the week unfolds here.”
Metcalf suffered the injury while attempting to make a sideline catch late in the third quarter of Sunday’s win. Metcalf went to the locker room with an ice wrap over his knee.
Metcalf finished the game with four catches, 99 yards, and one touchdown.
Metcalf has 35 receptions for 568 yards and three touchdowns on the season.
