Metzger was a prominent guard for the Vanderbilt Commodores of Vanderbilt University from 1908 to 1911. Metzger was Dan McGugin's first great lineman.[1] Metzger was selected for an Associated Press Southeast Area All-Time football team 1869-1919 era.[2] Metzger was chosen for an all-time Vandy team in 1912,[3] as well as an All-time Vandy team published in Vanderbilt's yearbook in 1934. At Vanderbilt he was a member of the Kappa Alpha fraternity.
Metzger was injured in the loss to Ohio State in 1909, breaking his leg just above the knee.[4]
The 1910 team which tied defending national champion Yale[5] and allowed just 8 points and scored 165 was led by Metzger,[6] a unanimous All-Southern player and third-team All-American as chosen by Walter Camp.[7] He was the third ever player from the South to get on one of Camp's teams.[8]
