DK Metcalf News
Friday, October 2, 6:15 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf finally delivered the big yardage game that had been missing through the first three weeks. Metcalf caught five of nine targets for a game-high 115 yards in Thursday night's 27-24 loss to Cleveland, surpassing the 98 receiving yards he had totaled over the first three games combined. Most of the damage came after halftime. He hauled in a 43-yard pass early in the fourth quarter to help jump-start Pittsburgh's comeback, then came up with catches of 22 and 28 yards on the late drive that eventually tied the game. Metcalf did not score, but the nine targets were a welcome jump after he saw only five against Cincinnati in Week 3. He now has 16 catches for 213 yards and one touchdown through four games. The production had been quiet to start the year, but Thursday was easily his most productive performance of the season.

DeVonta Smith News
Friday, October 2, 12:21 PM
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams, according to Brooks Kubena. Smith didn't practice this week after playing through the injury Monday night against Chicago, when he caught six passes for 65 yards. Philadelphia will now be without its most heavily targeted receiver. Smith has 27 targets, 19 receptions, 235 yards, and one touchdown through three games, leading the Eagles in each of the first three categories. Dontayvion Wicks and rookie Makai Lemon should both have more on their plates with Smith unavailable. Wicks has already been productive with 179 receiving yards through three games, while Lemon has seven catches on nine targets. Smith's Week 4 absence is official, with his availability beyond Sunday still something fantasy managers will need to monitor.
