I'm below consensus on DK Metcalf, who's going to draw shadow coverage from the Bengals' DJ Turner, one of the best perimeter cornerbacks in the league. Metcalf had 3-31-1 against the Bengals back in Week 3.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Metcalf's poor efficiency and Turner's elite coverage make him a high-end WR3.

Metcalf is going to draw shadow coverage from the Bengals' DJ Turner, one of the best perimeter cornerbacks in the league. Metcalf had 3-31-1 against the Bengals in Week 3 (the TD was a 6-yarder on which Turner collided with a teammate, leaving Metcalf wide open). Last season, Metcalf and Turner squared off twice: 3-50-0 in one game, 5-49-0 in the other. Metcalf hasn't been particularly good this year—he's WR36 in half-point PPR fantasy scoring and averaging a meager 1.31 yards per route run. Ranked as a high-end WR3 even in a week without many appealing WR options, well below consensus.
