I’m having a hard time feeling all that much urgency or uncertainty over D.K. Metcalf’s contract extension.

It’s reminiscent of the way I felt about Jamal Adams’s contract extension a year ago, the difference being that back then I was talking for three hours on the radio every weekday, a job that required me to say more than, “Look, it’s going to get done, and I’m not going to sweat the bluster and brinksmanship that may occur before it does.”

But now? I can just say: Look, it’s going to get done, and I’m not going to sweat the bluster and brinksmanship that may occur before it does.
