Seattle Seahawks lost their Week 6 fixture against the Pittsburgh Steelers after taking the game to overtime. The game was tight in the end and there was supposed to be no room for mistakes from any side. However, DK Metcalf committed to one at the end of the fourth quarter.
The Seahawks were trailing by three points with the ball in control and just 18 seconds left on the clock at the end of the fourth quarter. That is when Geno Smith passed the ball to DK Metcalf and he chose to follow the wrong path and in the process dropped the ball instead of just running out of play, saving on some valuable seconds.
