STACKED’s take
Metcalf's deep role and Saints' single-high weakness create elite upside.
DK Metcalf is heating up as WR32 in fantasy points per game with top 20 finishes in two of his last three games (WR16, WR8). He has a 22.1% target share, 1.35 YPRR, three red zone targets, 12 deep targets (third most among wide receivers), and 31.5% first-read share. Metcalf should shred the Saints secondary this week. New Orleans has the third-highest single high rate (64.2%) and has struggled to defend deep passing; against single high, Metcalf's TPRR increased from 20% to 23% and YPRR rose from 1.17 to 1.44. The Saints have allowed the eighth-most deep passing yards and highest passing success rate to downfield passing, plus ninth-most fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers.
