Metcalf has quickly turned into the Seahawks’ most fearsome receiver but was coming off a mediocre game in a 17-12 loss to the New York Giants last week.
He only had five catches for 80 yards and did not score a touchdown. Coming into the game against the Jets, Metcalf had gone two consecutive games without a score for the first time this season.
So far, he’s leading the league with 1,119 receiving yards. He has nine touchdown catches and 63 total receptions for the Seahawks.
