DK Metcalf: "I can't say anything about what happened"

Our Summary

Steelers receiver DK Metcalf has returned to the team after a two-game suspension for initiating contact with a fan at Ford Field in Detroit. Metcalf, who addressed reporters for the first time since the incident, repeatedly declined to comment on the situation, citing legal advice. The suspension appeal was denied, but Metcalf expressed excitement about rejoining his team. The incident may lead to a civil lawsuit by Lions fan Ryan Kennedy, who alleges assault and/or defamation. The Steelers are preparing for a wild-card game against the Texans, thanks to a missed field goal by Ravens kicker Tyler Loop.
