Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is coming off his worst showing of the season and will hope to bounce back against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. Unfortunately for Metcalf, Los Angeles has been stingy against the pass, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing wideouts and the third-fewest passing yards per game. On the positive side, Metcalf has been heavily involved in scoring situations, earning over 60% of Pittsburgh's red-zone targets this year. Assuming this contest remains competitive throughout, quarterback Aaron Rodgers should look his way early and often, especially near the goal line. While Metcalf's weekly reliability has dipped, his upside keeps him in play as a low-end WR2 or strong flex option.
