Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf has been known for his trash talking on the field, but he has found a way to continue his taunting without drawing penalties. Metcalf revealed that he has been learning American Sign Language (ASL) in order to communicate with opponents without using his voice. He explained that he started taking ASL classes on his off days to avoid getting flagged for mouthing off. During a recent game against the Los Angeles Rams, Metcalf put his newfound skills to use after scoring a touchdown against cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon. He signed Witherspoon's jersey number and the phrase "my son" to taunt him. Although the Seahawks lost the game, Metcalf did not receive an unsportsmanlike penalty for his actions. This is not the first time the Seahawks have engaged in creative trash talking. Safety Jerrick Reed previously trolled an opponent by wearing a ski mask. Seahawks fans will now be eagerly awaiting to see if Metcalf continues his ASL trash talking when they face the San Francisco 49ers on Thanksgiving Day.
