1.9 percent body fat? NFL prospect goes viral for massive physique
CLOSE SportsPulse: Kyler Murray and Dwayne Haskins faced the media at the Combine and weren't shy about how they'd view themselves on different teams. USA TODAY
"A lot of people hit me up, ‘what's your workout plan’ and I'm like, 'I'm just training for the combine.’ ""There's no Photoshop in that picture," said Metcalf. "I know the work I put in, so I'm not worried about what other people are gonna say." "So, if you’re a 179-pound corner, and you’re tackling a 235-pound back, or a 235-pound wideout or a tight end you’ve got to ask yourself, ‘Is this what I want to do?’"
"I see myself as the best receiver in this draft, because I'm a competitor and I’m going to compete every day," said Metcalf, who models his game after Julio Jones and Calvin Johnson and says there are no so-called 50-50 balls when passes are thrown to him. Metcalf isn't concerned about getting too big or flaming out like David Boston, a first-round pick of the Cardinals in 1999 whose weightlifting eventually became a detriment.
