D.K. Metcalf Could Struggle In Week 5
3 years agoSeattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf is a problem for opposing defenses in most matchups, but he has a terrible matchup in Week 5 against the Los Angeles Rams. Metcalf is likely to see a lot of cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who had a great performance against Metcalf in both of their matchups a season ago. Metcalf caught eight of his 12 targets for 87 yards combined in two matchups against the Rams in 2020. In the other 14 games he played, he averaged 86.9 yards per game. Basically, Metcalf's production was cut in half when matched up with Ramsey. Fantasy managers aren't benching Metcalf in season-long leagues as top-10 wideout, but you may want to temper expectations this week.
