STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Metcalf's 8.4 yards per catch and zero TDs through two games fall short of expectations.

Through two games, Metcalf has recorded eight receptions for 67 yards and zero touchdowns, averaging just 8.4 yards per catch. In Week 1 against Atlanta, he caught four passes for 40 yards; in Week 2 against New England, he was targeted nine times but caught only four passes for 27 yards (6.8 yards per reception) and dropped two passes. The struggles are notable given his reputation as a premier big-play threat and the Steelers' expectation of explosive production after acquiring him.
