DK Metcalf got himself in a bit of trouble a week ago.
And because of that, the Pittsburgh Steelers are finishing the regular season without their suspended wide receiver.
The first portion of that comes on Sunday, when the Steelers play in Cleveland against the Browns for Week 17.
Pittsburgh will clinch the AFC North title with a win. But to win, they'll have to make it happen without Metcalf.

How long is DK Metcalf suspended?
DK Metcalf is suspended for two games after shoving a fan in Detroit.
Metcalf appealed the suspension, but the two-game verdict was upheld.
It means he misses Week 17 against the Browns and Week 18 against the Ravens, but he'd conceptually be back for the playoffs.
Why isn't DK Metcalf playing today?
Metcalf isn't playing against the Browns due to that suspension.
He shoved a Lions fan in the front row after Metcalf evidently didn't appreciate what was being yelled at him from the stands.
Now, Metcalf is out for a couple games.
