DK Metcalf Absent As Week 3 Preparation Begins

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (hand) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. The star pass-catcher bounced back from a quiet season opener by catching 10 passes for 129 yards and one touchdown last Sunday. Now, as the Seahawks begin preparation for Week 3 versus the Miami Dolphins, Metcalf is nursing an injury. As of now, it's too early to say whether he might miss Sunday's contest. It's possible Seattle is being extra cautious with Metcalf and just giving him extra time to rest or heal. On the other hand, it's always a concern when a player misses practice. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as NFL Sunday gets closer. If he plays, he's a strong WR2 option.
