While the dots are easy and logical to connect, initial reporting suggests wide receiver DK Metcalf and quarterback Russell Wilson aren’t destined to become teammates again. Despite their connection from their days in Seattle, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac tweeted Sunday night that the the Steelers trade for Metcalf has no bearing on Wilson’s status.
In case you're wondering, the deal for Metcalf has nothing to do with Russell Wilson, his former teammate, per sources. https://t.co/OulHLxhTr3

Wilson and Metcalf were teammates for three seasons, 2019 to 2021 when Wilson was traded to the Denver Broncos.
