STACKED’s take

NeutralMatchup

Metcalf's coverage matchup is favorable, but Cleveland's perimeter WR defense is elite.

Against the Browns this week, the coverage structure favors Metcalf; Cleveland has the highest single-high rate in the NFL at 75.2%, and against single-high coverage, Metcalf's TPRR has risen from 20% to 23% and his YPRR has increased from 1.11 to 1.56. However, Cleveland has been shutting down perimeter wide receivers over their last five games, allowing the fifth-fewest yards per target and fourth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to the position, creating a mixed outlook.
