Wide receiver DK Metcalf surprised many with his public trade request this offseason, but it was not the first time he sought a move from his team.
Reports indicate Metcalf had privately requested trades multiple times in past offseasons, which the organization handled internally until now.
Despite the team's initial intent not to trade him, Metcalf's contract situation and desire to join a contender accelerated the process.
Ultimately, he was traded for a draft pick and secured a lucrative contract extension elsewhere.
