PITTSBURGH — DK Metcalf’s regular season is over. Following an appeals hearing, the NFL upheld the Pittsburgh Steelers receiver’s two-game suspension for “initiating a physical confrontation with a fan.” Metcalf will miss the Steelers’ Week 17 and Week 18 games. He’s eligible to return in the postseason, if the Steelers qualify.

Cam Heyward didn't exactly defend DK Metcalf but he had some choice words about the rules of suspension that the NFL use.

The two-game suspension for what the NFL terms "conduct detrimental" to the league now voids at least $45 million in future guaranteed money for the Pittsburgh Steelers receiver. Metcalf would still be able to earn that money over the next two years.

Steelers wideout DK Metcalf was suspended two games by the NFL on Monday in light of his physical altercation with a Lions fan on Sunday.

Speaking on his “Footbahlin” podcast, former Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger shared a unique perspective on the suspension and how it could shape the Steelers’ receiving corps heading into the postseason.

The NFL suspended DK Metcalf two games for shoving a fan in Week 16. What will be the impact on the Steelers' playoff hopes against the Ravens?

That player could end up being former Aaron Rodgers target Allen Lazard, who was released by the New York Jets last week. Lazard and the Steelers have long been connected to each other, but the deal never happened. The Steelers brought in one former Rodgers target in Marquez Valdes-Scantling, but now Lazard could be another player to watch.
