Video: Is Playing In The Slot The Key To Unlocking Tetairoa McMillan? | Reception Perception The Show
He is squarely in that like ex receiver bucket of Cland Sutton, Nico Collins and DK Metaf who are all 102nd to 104th on that list... those guys are ex only play. They're pretty much exon players.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Metcalf ranked 102nd in slot rate; Harmon views him as X-only receiver, unlike McMillan.

Matt Harmon ranks DK Metcalf 102nd–104th in slot rate among 117 WRs with 200+ routes, grouping him with Courtland Sutton and Nico Collins as X-receiver-only players. Harmon characterizes Metcalf and Sutton as 'pretty much exon players' and contrasts them with McMillan, who he believes should not be used exclusively at X.
