From the article

In five games, he has just 19 receptions for 225 yards, putting him on pace for 65 catches, 762 yards, and three touchdowns. And while those numbers are far from horrible, they certainly shouldn't reflect that of a wide receiver making $33 million per year.

Metcalf's 65-catch pace underperforms his $33M salary but he's creating value through blocking.
