Default Small extension on bottom of tailgate

I have a small piece of metal that extends past my tailgate and slides into a hole on my truck bed and was just wondering what it is for? it rubs really bad on my bed and makes an awful noise and was just wondering if it's something i can just cut off? i can take a picture later if needed.

I think there was a thread on this before. Do you have a step in the tailgate?

I have the tailgate step and a backup camera and have no metal sticking out.

Pictures would be REAL HELPFUL.

I'm pretty sure like someone said, another thread indicates it's a support for the bedstep.

Pics would really help.
