Metcalf didn't play during the preseason but will be ready to suit up for the Seahawks' Sept. 10 season opener versus the Rams.
Metcalf earned a career-high 141 targets in 2022, though his efficiency took a hit, as he averaged a career-low 7.4 yards per target. The addition of Jaxon Smith-Njigba (wrist) may eat into Metcalf's target share slightly in 2023, though the latter's efficiency could positively regress by having the rookie wideout and Tyler Lockett taking the spotlight off of him. Regardless, fantasy managers should be confident in Metcalf heading into his age-25 season after Geno Smith proved to be a viable starting quarterback in 2022.
