DK Metcalf: DK Metcalf's Fantasy Managers Hoping for Consistency in 2026
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf had an inconsistent 2025 season, and his dynasty managers will be looking for him to bounce back with a little more reliability next year. One key factor in Metcalf's productivity level is out of his control: the Steelers' quarterback situation. At this point, it seems likely that Aaron Rodgers will return for another season, but that's far from official. Given how last season played out, we wouldn't be surprised to see Rodgers take his time before re-signing. A Rodgers return would be good for Metcalf in the sense that he wouldn't have to play with a lower-tier or rookie quarterback. However, we have already seen what a year of Rodgers and Metcalf looks like together, and it wasn't great. The veteran receiver was the overall WR26 in PPR leagues in 2025, finishing outside the top 24 for the second consecutive year. He had 59 catches and a career-low 850 yards while making six trips to the end zone. A glimmer of hope could be headed Metcalf's way if the Steelers bring in another established receiver. While a new pass catcher could take some targets away, it could also pull some defensive coverage off Metcalf. The Steelers' No. 2 receiver in 2025, Calvin Austin III, had a subpar season and rarely drew the opponent's top cornerback. Adding a more competitive option in the passing game could give defenses a headache and lead to more opportunities for Metcalf to use his size and physicality in one-on-one matchups. So while a Rodgers return isn't the best-case scenario for Metcalf, the 28-year-old receiver could still benefit and bounce back if the Steelers bring in other key weapons to strengthen their offense all around.
