DK Metcalf Misses Another Practice

DK Metcalf Misses Another Practice

one year ago

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (ribs) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Metcalf took a hard shot to his ribs in the Week 2 overtime win over the Detroit Lions, and head coach Pete Carroll said earlier this week that the team would likely need to give him some time to recover this week. As long as the 25-year-old returns to practice in some form on Friday, he should at least attempt to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Carolina Panthers. Through two games this year, Metcalf has nine receptions on 11 targets for 122 yards and a touchdown, so as long as he's active, he needs to be in starting fantasy lineups. If Metcalf is limited or out this week, it will open up more looks for both Tyler Lockett and rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
