DK Metcalf Comes Through For Fantasy Managers Before Exiting Due To Injury

DK Metcalf Comes Through For Fantasy Managers Before Exiting Due To Injury

2 weeks ago

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) caught four of seven targets for 99 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons. Metcalf was on his way to another monster game if he had not gone down with a knee injury in the second half. He was carted to the locker room which left a shred of doubt in the mind of fantasy managers. However, it sounds like the injury may not have been serious. Head coach Mike Macdonald stated after the game that "It doesn't look too bad". That is great news for fantasy managers who have been relying on Metcalf this season. He has been an excellent fantasy asset in 2024 and has been having arguably his best season since his sophomore season when he recorded 1,303 receiving yards and ten touchdowns. If Metcalf suffered a simple injury, then he should be deployed once again in Week 8. However, this situation is one to monitor as Metcalf will likely have a cap on his reps in practice throughout this upcoming week.
