However, Blankenship sought out the Seahawks beast for a picture with him after the game at Lucas Oil Stadium. Blankenship shushed all the haters by posting it on Instagram with caption, “Yes, we both play the same sport. And yes, we’re both pretty dang good at it. Best of luck this season bro. Time to go to work and bounce back! #RespectTheSpecs #WalkOnMentality”
No matter how far away Blankenship might be in the physical spectrum with Metcalf. He stands tall with pride and courage, which DK Metcalf noticed and commented, “My Boy. Goodluck the rest of the season,” on his post.

Rodrigo Blankenship rocks goggles and is listed with a height of 6’1, weighing 184 pounds. Furthermore, Rodrigo has no remarkable feat in a 40 yard dash or in bench press reps. However, defying all odds the kicker made 33-of-38 field goal tries and 44-of-46 PATs.
While on the contrary, Metcalf sporting his aqua hair is listed with a height of 6’4, weighing 235 pounds. Along with the intimidating physical appearance that he has, he is also fast enough to compete against professionals in the 100- meter dash.
