DK Metcalf Has Boom-or-Bust Potential for Sunday Night Football

Friday, November 13, 3:20 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf turned in two quiet performances before the team's Week 9 bye and will need to step up on the road in a crucial divisional showdown against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. Cincinnati has been a middle-of-the-road matchup for opposing wideouts this season, but the Bengals are allowing the 12th-most passing yards and over 28 points per game at home. Although Metcalf scored a touchdown when these teams last met in Week 3, he recorded just three receptions for 31 yards, while Roman Wilson (finger) outpaced him in targets and receiving yards. Of course, the Steelers will once again be without Wilson and fellow wideout Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) on Sunday night, leaving Metcalf and rookie Germie Bernard as quarterback Aaron Rodgers' top targets at receiver. Cincinnati's offense is firing on all cylinders right now, which could force Pittsburgh to throw more in what projects to be a high-scoring affair. Metcalf is far from a reliable fantasy option at this point, but he still offers plenty of upside and should be viewed as a low-end WR2 or solid flex option this week.

Malik Nabers Does Not Speak to Media After Thursday's Loss for the First Time in Three Years

Friday, November 13, 3:44 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers did not speak to the media after the team's 24-21 loss to the Washington Commanders. For the first time in his three years with the team, Nabers did not address reporters after the game. In Week 10, Nabers caught just five of seven targets for 44 yards, as he's slowed after a hot streak from Week 4 to Week 7. The third-year receiver had a chance on a 50/50 ball at the end of the game to get the Giants in field goal range, but the pass was intercepted despite Nabers having a real chance to reel it in. While his absence from the locker room shouldn't affect his status with the team, his lack of production over the last two weeks is worrisome.
