From the article

Averaging a depth of target of 19.0 yards, he caught only four of nine targets for 40 total yards. The success might have been inconsistent, but the target share itself shows that Metcalf remains Rodgers' favorite target — a group that also includes Roman Wilson, tight end Pat Freiermuth and running back Jaylen Warren.
