RENTON, Wash. -- Star wide receiver DK Metcalf was not present Tuesday for the start of the Seattle Seahawks' three-day mandatory minicamp.
Sources told ESPN that Metcalf's absence is unexcused, meaning he's subject to team fines that would total more than $93,000 if he were to miss all three days.
Metcalf is seeking an extension to his rookie contract and also is recovering from surgery for the foot injury he played through for much of last season. His absence from the start of mandatory minicamp marks something of a turn in his approach, as he was present earlier this spring for portions of the team's voluntary offseason program.
