From the article

Two past examples of X-receivers on the Seahawks are DK Metcalf and Sidney Rice. Both receivers were 6'4", with Metcalf coming in at 230lbs and Rice at 202lbs, and both having over 33 inch arm lengths. They used their big bodies and wide wingspans to catch passes coming their way on the boundary.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Metcalf exemplifies X-receiver archetype with size, wingspan, and boundary dominance.

X-receiver (split end) archetype for the Seahawks; 6'4", 230 lbs with over 33-inch arm length; uses big body and wide wingspan to win 1-on-1 coverage on the boundary; typically the most talented receiver and WR1 on the team who does not motion pre-snap.
