Metcalf hot lately; feels-good flex vs cooked Detroit secondary despite earlier sit call
DK MetcalfWRPIT
Dvonte Adams explicitly recommends not starting DK Metcalf in Week 16 fantasy playoffs. However, Metcalf has been hot the last couple weeks with big plays and touchdowns, and the matchup against Detroit is phenomenal: Detroit's secondary has allowed the second-most fantasy points to WRs this year and the 52.5-point total is very high. Adams places him in the bottom of the feels-good category as a top-15 to top-18 option for Week 16, though he typically scores 8-9 points without TD upside.
