Metcalf's inconsistencies, his drops this season have been bewildering...the last three weeks has been a world of difference from an output perspective for DK Metcalf. He did have pretty much a donut in week five.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

Metcalf's drops and inconsistencies over last three weeks undermine his forced target volume.

Despite being force-fed targets by the Steelers offense, Metcalf's inconsistencies and drops this season have been concerning. Over the last three weeks, his output has been significantly worse than prior performance; he posted essentially a zero in week five. The source notes Metcalf will continue to receive forced targets but emphasizes his unreliability as a reason to prefer Jeremy Bernard in the same offense.
