Source transcript excerpt
DK Metcalf, the Pittsburgh Steelers offense looks a lot better. I mean, Aaron Rodgers technically still has that broken hand {slash} wrist, but um still, you had Metcalf with a season-high 12 targets, a season-high seven receptions, a season-high 148 receiving yards this past week, bringing up his season averages across the board. Now, still, this is pretty much the worst mark that we have seen with his targets and receptions since his rookie season, but at least the efficiency with the yards per route run looks a hell of a lot better, and I'm not super super concerned about what we have with this matchup against the Miami Dolphins.
