Metcalf will surely rant about his fortune, as even though he delivered a tremendous 84-yard touchdown run, the Seahawks failed to register a win against the Saints.

However, the 23-year-old receiver took his thoughtful temperament to the next level as he decided to tweet a note on “Life”. He started off by alluding to the time ‘God’ has given him to prove his abilities in the field, which is just 12 rounds and four quarters in a game.

Talking of Metcalf, he has had a rough season so far, especially with Russell gone the team is going through a three-game losing streak. Even though their previous two games against the Steelers and Saints have been close encounters, and the failure of the team to deliver at the very end of the game led them to lose.

However, Metcalf emphasizes “to live for today and genuinely be happy for the opportunity we get to wake up every morning and choose to be happy.” His optimistic vision delivers an impression that the receiver will go all-in for his game against the Jaguars next week.
