The 49ers aren't the only NFC West team undergoing major shakeups to their wide receiver room.
On the same day All-Pro wideout Davante Adams reportedly agreed to a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Rams, the Seattle Seahawks made an earth-shaking decision of their own.
The Seahawks reportedly are trading star wide receiver D.K. Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers, NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported Sunday.

The #Seahawks are trading WR DK Metcalf to the #Steelers for premium draft pick compensation, per me and @TomPelissero, as finally(!) Pittsburgh gets its big-play weapon.
Metcalf will also get a contract extension to go with the trade. pic.twitter.com/xKv7Qpr16r

Seattle reportedly will receive a 2025 second-round draft pick in exchange for Metcalf.
Itβs a 2025 2nd rounder to Seattle for DK Metcalf. Mammoth. https://t.co/g0I3YYonla

Rapoport and Pelissero also reported Metcalf will receive a five-year $150 million contract extension from the Steelers.

All of this comes after the 49ers agreed to trade All-Pro wide receiver Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders.
Metcalf and Samuel entered the league together, with both joining the NFC West after being selected in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft by the Seahawks and 49ers respectively.
There's plenty of room for further change in the NFC West as the new league year begins this week, but one thing is certain -- the division will look a lot different in 2025.
