• Seahawks' DK Metcalf: Misses Wednesday's practice

  16H ago • By RotoWire

  Metcalf didn't take part in Wednesday's practice due to a hand injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. After a measly 3-29-0 receiving line on four targets in a Week 1 win against the Broncos, Metcalf broke out this past Sunday in New England, securing a 56-yard touchdown as part of a 10-catch, 129-yard performance on 14 targets. It's unclear if his current health concern is threatening his availability for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins, but the next two days of practices likely will help give a sense of his chances to suit up.

• Seahawks' DK Metcalf: Long TD against Patriots

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Metcalf recorded 10 receptions on 14 targets for 129 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Patriots. The Seahawks got aggressive through the air in Sunday's win, and targets were heavily concentrated between Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Metcalf made his mark on the game early, striking for a deep 56-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. He had several chunk gains from there to turn in his first 100-yard effort of the season, a mark he managed to reach only three times across 15 games in 2023.

• Seahawks' DK Metcalf: Struggles in season opener

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Metcalf finished with three receptions on four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos. Metcalf fell victim to a run-heavy game script that featured teammate Kenneth Walker (abdominal) breaking the century mark in rushing yards and scoring one of two touchdowns by Seattle running backs on the day. The star wideout will have better games ahead, especially if Walker is unable to suit up against the Patriots next Sunday. For reference, Metcalf had just three receptions in Week 1 of the 2023 season before finishing the campaign with 1,114 receiving yards and eight touchdowns.

• Seahawks' DK Metcalf: Unlikely to play in preseason

  08/15/2024 • By RotoWire

  Metcalf isn't likely to play in any games this preseason, Gregg Bell of The News Tribune reports. Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said joint practices with the Titans this week will be the best opportunity for Metcalf and other top players to solidify their knowledge of the new offense brought in by coordinator Ryan Grubb. The Seahawks opted for personnel continuity on offense this offseason, apart from some discount signings for the O-line, so they're counting on Grubb to improve a unit that finished middle of the pack in most efficiency stats last year. A faster-paced offense could help Metcalf and other key players score more fantasy points, after the Seahawks finished 32nd, 22nd and 32nd in overall play volume the past three seasons under former head coach Pete Carroll and offensive coordinator Shane Waldron. There's certainly no lack of skill-position talent, with Metcalf joined by WRs Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba, RBs Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet and TE Noah Fant.

• Seahawks' DK Metcalf: Ugly finish to 2023 season

  01/08/2024 • By RotoWire

  Metcalf was held to one reception for 10 yards on six targets in Sunday's 21-20 win over Arizona. Quarterback Geno Smith was not synced up with his No. 1 receiver despite picking up the win, resulting in the duo's worst catch rate (17 percent) to date. Even with the sour finish, Metcalf turned in his third 1,000-yard season since joining the league in 2019. The ironman missed the first game of his career due to injury, but he started Seattle's other 16 contests to finish with 66 receptions, 1,114 yards and eight touchdowns. Metcalf will continue to operate as the Seahawks' top receiving option when the team resumes play in 2024.
