DK Metcalf A Bounce-Back Candidate Heading Into Week 8

Tuesday, October 21, 9:22 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf was held to just three receptions for 50 yards on five targets in Thursday night's 33-31 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He got off to a fast start, securing a 39-yard deep ball on Pittsburgh's opening drive, but took a backseat to tight end Pat Freiermuth and running back Jaylen Warren for much of the game. His only other memorable moment was a negative one, as Bengals cornerback DJ Turner II ripped the ball from his hands for an interception in the second quarter. Fortunately, Metcalf should be able to get back on track in a favorable Week 8 home matchup against the Green Bay Packers. With quarterback Aaron Rodgers likely motivated to perform against his former team, Metcalf profiles as a low-end WR1 for fantasy purposes.
