From the episode

DK Metcalf finally sort of put a decent game together. Five catches for 115 yards... He had 241 unrealized air yards, which is air yards on incomplete targets. That was the second most in the NFL over that span. That's a signal that the downfield opportunity had been there for him.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Metcalf's 241 unrealized air yards show opportunity; expect volatility with Rodgers.

Metcalf finally delivered a solid game in week four (5 catches, 115 yards) after struggling through weeks one through three. However, he accumulated 241 unrealized air yards (second-most in the NFL) over that span, signaling downfield opportunity existed but he hadn't connected with Aaron Rodgers. Metcalf will be a roller coaster all season given this usage pattern; Chace Daskalos suggests selling after prime-time 150-yard games rather than holding through volatility.
