Versatile walk-on who earned trust with blocking and special teams
Dayton Metcalf’s calling card at Oklahoma State was reliability: a walk-on who carved out a meaningful role in 2020 on special teams and as an offensive blocker, even earning game-captain duties that season. In the 2020 season, he played every game and also logged a kickoff return for 16 yards against TCU, showing the kind of do-everything utility coaches love. He’s not a stat-sheet headliner, but if you want toughness, assignment soundness, and a team-first presence, he fits the mold of a glue guy who quietly helps winning football.
