Metcalf (foot) doesn't have a designation for Thursday's game versus the Rams, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wednesday's practice report marked the fifth in a row in which Metcalf was listed as a limited participant due to a foot issue. Still, he was able to suit up Week 4 and will do so again Thursday. The Seahawks may be without Chris Carson in Week 5 with the running back dealing with a sore neck, so the game plan could be a bit more aerial-based than normal. On the season, Metcalf has been his typical productive self, churning out 20 catches (on 33 targets) for 285 yards and three touchdowns in four contests.

Metcalf (foot) was a limited practice participant Tuesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Metcalf managed a foot injury last week, too, when his reps were capped in the final two sessions. Still, he entered the weekend without a designation and logged a typical allotment of snaps (81 percent on offense) on his way to catching four of eight passes for 65 yards and one touchdown this past Sunday at San Francisco. Metcalf will look to do the same in advance of Thursday's game versus the Rams.

The Seahawks list Metcalf as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report due to a foot injury, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Seattle didn't hold a formal practice following Sunday's 28-21 win over the 49ers, but Metcalf looks as though he may be slightly banged up coming out of that contest. Even if Metcalf was affected by the foot issue in the contest, it wasn't apparent in his final stat line. He played 46 of 56 (82 percent) of offensive snaps and delivered four receptions for 65 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. Most likely, the Seahawks are taking it easy on Metcalf on a short week, and the expectation is that he'll be ready to handle his usual starting role Thursday against the Rams.

Metcalf caught four of eight targets for 65 yards and one touchdown against San Francisco on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Metcalf wasn't especially efficient Sunday, but the Seahawks offense in general sputtered a bit against the 49ers, especially early on. It'd be nice to see more life from the Seahawks passing game, but on the other hand it's reassuring to see Metcalf produce even when the offense is not explosive. They have a short week to prepare for the Rams on Thursday.

Metcalf (foot) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest in San Francisco, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Metcalf made a sudden appearance on Seattle's practice report Thursday, when he was limited due to a foot injury. The health concern won't impact his availability for Week 4, but the same can't be said for Tyler Lockett, who officially is questionable. If Lockett is hindered or sits out entirely Sunday, Metcalf would be in line for a huge share of Russell Wilson's passes.

Metcalf was added to the Seahawks' Week 4 injury report Thursday, when he was limited in practice by a foot issue, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Through three-plus weeks of the current campaign, Metcalf had avoided being anything but a full participant in practice. Now with a cloud hanging over his status, the Seahawks' group of wide receivers is banged-up, with Tyler Lockett (hip) downgrading from limited Wednesday to no activity one day later, and Dee Eskridge making his first notable progress through the concussion protocol with a limited showing Thursday. As a result, Seattle's WR corps as a whole will be one to monitor closely as the week goes on.

Metcalf caught six of nine targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
The third-year wideout opened the scoring on the afternoon with a 10-yard grab from Russell Wilson in the first quarter, setting the stage for Metcalf's first 100-yard game of the year. He led Seattle in catches, yards and targets, and he might need to come up big again in Week 4 in a tough road matchup against the 49ers.

Metcalf caught six of 11 targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Metcalf's longest catch of the day went for 16 yards, while both Tyler Lockett and Freddie Swain recorded receptions of more than 60 yards. It's worth noting that head coach Pete Carroll said Metcalf was "sore" during the game, and that may have factored into a lower depth of target than usual. Nevertheless, it's promising that he received double-digit targets. The Seahawks draw a favorable Week 3 matchup against the Vikings, who have allowed 661 passing yards and five passing touchdowns through two games.

Metcalf had four receptions (five targets) for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Tyler Lockett (100 yards and 2 scores) stole the show from a fantasy perspective, but Metcalf still turned in a solid line. Russell Wilson remains one of the best deep-threat quarterbacks in the league, and without much depth behind his two speedy wideouts, Metcalf and Lockett are likely to alternate big performances on a weekly basis. Next up is a Week 2 matchup against the Titans on Sunday.

Metcalf didn't play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
The Seahawks kept Metcalf -- along with Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett (groin) and Chris Carson -- on the sidelines for all three preseason games. Nothing's more important for Metcalf than getting to the regular season healthy after the 23-year-old posted 83 receptions for 1,303 yards and 10 touchdowns on 129 targets last season. As long as he's healthy, he'll be an elite fantasy option and should be drafted as such.
