Seahawks
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf did not carry his momentum from Week 16 into Week 17. Metcalf caught three passes for 42 yards on Thursday night against the Chicago Bears. In Metcalf's defense, Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith did not play well in this game. The offense only scored six points, and Smith only threw for 160 yards. It continued a tough stretch for Metcalf which includes one touchdown since Week 7 and no 100-yard receiving games over that same span. Seattle should generate more fantasy output in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams for fantasy managers whose championships go into next week. The conversation about Metcalf is sure to be interesting next season. He started the year hot as a top-10 wide receiver. Upon returning from his sprained MCL in Week 11, Metcalf has been borderline unplayable. The emergence of wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has tempered Metcalf's output. However, there is plenty of volume in this offense to go around. Perhaps the knee injury hampered Metcalf more than it seemed.

DK Metcalf May Be Touchdown-Dependent In Week 17
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf has been a difficult fantasy asset to trust lately. In Week 16 against the Minnesota Vikings, Metcalf scored his first touchdown since Week 7. His target volume has been solid lately, but his production has not flowed. The Seahawks face the Chicago Bears in Week 17. The Bears have not been a scary matchup for opposing passing games in recent weeks. Still, Metcalf is a risky play. His catch rate of 60% is primarily contributing to his poor production. His downfield targets are a high-risk, high-reward. Additionally, the emergence of Jaxon Smith-Njigba as a true No. 1 wide receiver in the offense is not helping Metcalf's case. The Seahawks are in desperation mode and must win on Thursday to have any chance of advancing to the playoffs. As such, expect them to be aggressive offensively. That could play to Metcalf's advantage. He checks in as a high-end flex play with upside this week.

DK Metcalf Finds The End Zone In Week 16
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf caught his first touchdown since Week 7 in Seattle's Week 16 loss to the Vikings. Metcalf got off to a fast start with 57 yards and the touchdown. However, he was quiet in the second half and was not heard from as quarterback Geno Smith started spreading the ball around. It looked momentarily as if Metcalf was headed towards a monster fantasy day. Even so, seeing Metcalf find fantasy relevance again was encouraging. He earned seven targets which was his highest since Week 9. Metcalf's poor catch percentage continues to be concerning though. He only caught three passes. He will look to improve upon this week in Week 17 when the Seahawks visit the Bears. Seattle is fighting for their playoff lives and will need all hands on deck.

DK Metcalf Carries Risk Despite Great Matchup In Week 16
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) draws an excellent matchup against the Vikings in Week 16. However, Metcalf has been borderline unplayable in recent weeks. He has been bothered by a shoulder injury that has limited his practice reps but it has not stopped him from playing in any games. Metcalf has not caught more than four passes or exceeded 59 receiving yards since Week 11. He seems to have been overtaken as the No. 1 wide receiver by Jaxon Smith-Njigba. With Metcalf flailing recently, it isn't easy to consider playing him this week. In Metcalf's defense, he has faced solid to great defenses over the last several weeks. If there were ever a game for Metcalf to get back to normal, this would be the game. However, Metcalf should be treated as a flex option with upside. He has not delivered WR2 numbers since Week 11 so you will need to temper expectations if you deploy him in your lineup. He is always a candidate to catch a long touchdown, and he is due for a touchdown at this point. He has always been one of the better bets to find the end zone but he has not scored since Week 7.

DK Metcalf Returns To Full Practice On Thursday
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) was a full participant during Thursday's practice session. Metcalf sat out of practice on Wednesday, but that was likely just a rest day for the superstar wideout. That being said, Metcalf appears to be extremely likely to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. That is good news for fantasy managers, but Metcalf's value hinges on the status of Geno Smith (knee). Smith has practiced in full each of the last two days, so hopefully he'll be removed from the injury report on Friday. If that happens, Metcalf can be started as a WR2 for this weekend.

DK Metcalf Misses Practice As Week 16 Prep Begins
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. While any sort of injury is concerning, especially with the fantasy playoffs in full swing, it should be noted that Wednesday absences are sometimes precautionary. The Seahawks could be giving Metcalf a little extra time to recover from last Sunday's contest before getting him prepped for Week 16 against the Minnesota Vikings. If he upgrades to a limited or full participant on Thursday, he has a good chance to play against Minnesota this weekend. In such a scenario, he'd rank as a mid-to-high WR3/FLEX in fantasy football.

DK Metcalf Playing His Way To Fantasy Benches After A Three-Catch Week
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf's value has cratered this season. He only caught three passes for 28 yards in Seattle's Week 15 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Metcalf has been overtaken by fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the receiving pecking order. Smith-Njigba has consistently seen more targets and production than Metcalf over the second half of the season. Still, Metcalf was always seemingly within a target or two of JSN's total in each game. In Week 15, Metcalf earned nine fewer targets than Smith-Njigba. The Seahawks offense struggled as a whole so it could be partially due to a lack of total offensive production. However, Metcalf has not caught a touchdown since Week 7. He has not exceeded four receptions since Week 11. Those are not numbers that one would associate with a starting-caliber wide receiver in fantasy football. On the bright side, Metcalf has a great matchup in Week 16 when the Seahawks host Minnesota.

DK Metcalf May Not Bounce Back In The Face Of A Tough Matchup This Week
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) has struggled to produce for fantasy lately. To make matters worse, he has been battling various ailments over the last few weeks including a nagging shoulder injury. He should be good to go after being removed from the injury report on Friday. Metcalf's outlook may not improve in Week 15 when the Seahawks host the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. The Packers are No. 9 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy football and Metcalf has struggled to find room to operate downfield since he returned from a sprained MCL in Week 11. Additionally, Metcalf has not always been quarterback Geno Smith's No. 1 target this season. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba emerging as an elite option, Smith is spreading the ball around more. Lastly, Metcalf's red zone targets are down this season. After earning 1.5 red zone targets per game in 2023, Metcalf has cut that number in half to 0.73 red zone targets per game this season. That number has significantly diminished his touchdown opportunities despite his yardage and reception totals being comparable to previous seasons. Metcalf is more of low-end WR2 until he can prove reliable as a high-end option once again. However, time is running out during this fantasy football season.

DK Metcalf Downgraded To Limited On Thursday
After putting in a full practice on Wednesday, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) was listed as limited on Thursday. Metcalf has been listed on the team's injury report with a shoulder issue for three straight weeks now, but it hasn't kept him from playing on Sundays, which means his downgraded practice participation this week is likely for rest purposes. As long as the 26-year-old wideout doesn't miss practice on Friday, he's most likely going to be removed from the final injury report and be good to go for Sunday night's clash against the visiting Green Bay Packers. In the last two games, Metcalf has reeled in eight of his 15 targets for 115 yards and no touchdowns. The veteran pass-catcher's fantasy ceiling has been lowered in 2024 due to the emergence of second-year receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba -- JSN leads the team in catches, yards and TDs -- dropping Metcalf to more of a WR2/3.

DK Metcalf Gets Through Full Practice Session
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) was able to get through a full practice session on Wednesday. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too surprised that Metcalf is on the injury report. He was able to suit up last week despite only getting through one full practice. Metcalf finished in four receptions for 49 yards in the win. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried about Metcalf, barring any setbacks. He should be a strong WR1 for matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for updates just in case something changes.
