Season so far
It is early in DK Metcalf's season, as he has logged just one contest and earned a replacement-level 62.9 overall grade across 60 snaps. He proved solid in the passing attack with a 69.8 receiving grade, highlighted by a 6-yard touchdown slant against outside leverage and a physical 11-yard screen pickup. Metcalf also helped sustain drives by creating clean intermediate first downs and drawing a defensive holding penalty. However, his overall value was severely degraded by a 45.4 run-blocking grade across 14 blocking snaps. His run blocking was plagued by two catastrophic holding penalties, including one that nullified an 87-yard sprint down to the 5-yard line.
