DK Metcalf's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf saw a team-high six targets in Week 18 but had just one catch for 10 yards in Sunday's win, making it his least productive game of the year. Most of the balls that went Metcalf's way were well off-target as quarterback Geno Smith was under intense pressure and hurrying throws for most of the game. Metcalf was denied two additional receptions as well. The first was denied by a pass interference penalty that Seattle accepted to gain a first down and the other was overturned upon official review. It was a disappointing end to the season for Metcalf, who had just two top-12 finishes in 2023. Despite the down year, he still had his third 1,000-yard season in his five-year career, ending with 66 catches for 1,114 receiving yards and eight touchdowns. Metcalf, under contract through 2025, will return to Seattle next season as their top receiving threat.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf had his third 100-yard game of the season last Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, catching five of eight targets for 106 yards. The yardage carried him across the 1,000-yard mark for the year, giving him his third such season in his five-year career. In Week 18, Metcalf and the Seahawks are in a must-win situation to make the playoffs when they take on the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona has not allowed much production to wide receivers in 2023, but that is likely a symptom of being the worst run defense in the league. The Cardinals' frequent use of zone coverage could benefit Metcalf though. The last time Seattle played a team that utilized the scheme as much as Arizona was Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams, and Metcalf came out of that game with five catches for 94 yards and a touchdown. Metcalf is a solid play in the last week of the regular season, though his ceiling might be capped considering that Seattle may opt to go run-heavy.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf led the team in receiving yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, gaining 106 yards on five catches. This was Metcalf's third 100-yard game in 15 played this season. The receptions tied him with tight end Noah Fant and running back Zach Charbonnet for the team lead and his eight targets were the most seen by a Seahawk in Week 17. Metcalf was responsible for some big gains in the contest, catching passes for 33, 32, and 21 yards. He also incurred an obvious holding penalty in the third quarter which negated a 24-yard rush by Kenneth Walker III (shoulder). Metcalf was a consistent contributor in fantasy in 2023 but rarely delivered on the high expectations commanded by his role and skillset. The Seahawks play the Arizona Cardinals next, where Metcalf will likely put up another WR2/3 finish for fantasy managers playing on through Week 18.
