Metcalf posted another banner outing, finishing the day as the team’s leading receiver with 12 receptions on 15 targets for 161 yards (long of 46) and two touchdowns. He got three times as many looks as wide receiver Tyler Lockett.

Through seven games played, Metcalf has amassed 35 catches for 680 yards and seven scores.
