Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf snagged 7 receptions for 104 yards in Monday night's loss at Detroit. He narrowly missed scoring a second-quarter TD from 30 yards out, going down just short of the goal line to set up a short Kenneth Walker scoring run. Metcalf also lost a key first-half fumble, though. His 12 targets tied Jaxon Smith-Njigba for the team lead on a high-volume passing night (56 team attempts). This marked Metcalf's third straight game with more than 100 yards.
Metcalf interestingly has yet to lead Seattle in targets by himself for a game this season. That's not necessarily a negative, as he does lead the team in total targets and receiving yards -- by 140.
Metcalf ranks third in the league with 366 yards and tied for eighth in receptions. He ranks just 29th league wide in target share but 15th in air-yards share.
The target spread among Seahawks WRs serves as a weekly scoring challenge, but Seattle has mitigated that challenge by throwing more passes than any other team in the league.
Metcalf might have trouble maintaining his current WR1-level scoring. But he's only a "sell" candidate if you can find someone paying that WR1 price in trade.
