DK Metcalf Week 6 Outlook - Browns at Steelers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 9th 2025, 1:35pm EDT

D.K. Metcalf is the WR18 in fantasy points per game, seeing a 20% target share with 65.3 receiving yards per game (2.51 yards per route run) and a 26.7% first-read share. He has only one deep target this season and three red zone targets. Metcalf will face a Browns' pass defense that has utilized the fifth-highest single high rate (61.3%). Against single high, Metcalf has seen his target share increase to 25.5% with 2.46 yards per route run and a 31.7% first-read share. Metcalf should have success this week against a secondary that has allowed the fourth-most PPR points per target and the third-highest passer rating when targeted to perimeter wide receivers.
