DK Metcalf Faces Familiar “Grass Is Greener” Jabs
The “grass is greener” line has followed Metcalf since he left Seattle. He once used similar words when discussing his decision to move on. Fans now throw it back at him whenever his production dips.
Last season Metcalf posted 59 catches for 850 yards and six touchdowns. Those numbers marked a career low in yardage. Critics pointed to the aging quarterback situation and limited deep targets.
Metcalf remains a physical presence at 6-foot-4 and 229 pounds. He continues working through training camp with the Steelers. Recent reports note he is managing an undisclosed injury.
The latest Instagram moment shows he still has no problem matching energy with online critics. His quick reply reminded everyone that the big receiver does not back down from words.
He will join forces with Aaron Rodgers again, hoping to take the Steelers further than last season. The wide receiver will have help from Michael Pittman Jr. and running back Rico Dowdle in a revamped Steelers offense.
