    Texans' John Metchie: One touch in loss

    Metchie caught one of three targets for six yards in Sunday's 32-27 loss to Tennessee in Week 12.Metchie's activity has picked up dramatically since injuries hit the Houston wide receiver room, and he's garnered 18 targets over the last five weeks. He's had varying degrees of success, but now that Nico Collins is back, Metchie is fighting for whatever scraps aren't allotted to Collins, Tank Dell or the team's tight ends.

    Texans' John Metchie: Three targets in win

    Metchie caught all three of his targets for 33 yards in Monday's 34-10 win over Dallas.Metchie's recent workload increase receded due to the return of Nico Collins, who missed five weeks due to a hamstring injury. Metchie appears to have used Collins' absence to win the No. 3 receiver role, slotting behind Collins and Tank Dell. Metchie (39 snaps) was on the field more than Xavier Hutchinson (28) or Robert Woods (20) and has 11 receptions on 15 targets for 136 yards and one touchdown over the last four weeks. Metchie's playing time could take a hit in the coming weeks when the Houston Texans feel comfortable giving Collins more than the 30 snaps he had Monday.

    Texans' John Metchie: Breaks out against Lions

    Metchie recorded five receptions on six targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Lions.Metchie enjoyed the most productive game of his career and paced the Houston Texans with 74 receiving yards. He was particularly impressive on a possession just before halftime, initially hauling in a deep 25-yard pass before capping the drive with a 15-yard touchdown reception -- the first of his career. While Nico Collins (hamstring) is likely to be back in Week 11 against the Cowboys, Metchie could have the chance to earn a larger role across the second half of the season due to the underwhelming showings from Tank Dell.

    Texans' John Metchie: Two targets in loss

    Metchie failed to catch either of his two targets in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.With the team's top wideouts sidelined, Metchie was in line to take on a greater role, but it didn't work out that way. Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud spent much of the night running away from or getting hit by Jets defenders, which made a mess of the passing attack. Metchie, who played a season-high 50 snaps, and fellow wideout Xavier Hutchinson (59 snaps, three targets, no catches) were non-factors in the loss.

    Texans' John Metchie: Could see increased snaps Week 9

    Metchie will be one of four healthy wide receivers for the Houston Texans heading into Thursday's game against the Jets, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.The Texans received expected bad news Tuesday when they learned that Stefon Diggs suffered a season-ending ACL tear in his right knee during this past Sunday's win over the Colts. Diggs' injury coupled with top wideout Nico Collins (hamstring) spending at least one more game on injured reserve opens the door for Metchie, Robert Woods and Xavier Hutchinson to handle expanded roles behind Tank Dell, who will temporarily settle in as the Texans' No. 1 receiver until Collins is ready to return. Metchie benefited from Diggs' early exit Sunday, drawing a season-high four targets and catching three passes for 29 yards.

    Texans' John Metchie: Increased usage Sunday

    Metchie caught three of four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.Metchie had his most productive game of the season on a day when Stefon Diggs sustained a non-contact knee injury that may be season-ending. Two of Metchie's targets came on the same drive after Diggs was removed from the game. If the injury turns out to be significant and Diggs joins Nico Collins (hamstring) on the sidelines, Tank Dell would occupy the top of the depth chart, while Metchie, Xavier Hutchinson and Robert Woods take on greater roles as well.

    Texans' John Metchie: Does little with extra snaps

    Metchie didn't draw a target while playing 25 of the Houston Texans' 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 41-21 win over the Patriots.Though he was active for the third straight game and saw his highest snap share of the season with Nico Collins (hamstring) on injured reserve and with Robert Woods (foot) inactive for the contest, Metchie didn't see any involvement in the passing attack. If Woods is cleared to play Week 7 against the Packers, Metchie would likely drop to fifth in the pecking order at receiver behind Stefon Diggs, Tank Dell, Xavier Hutchinson and Woods.

    Texans' John Metchie: Inactive in Week 2

    Metchie (coach's decision) was inactive for Week 2 against the Bears.Metchie has not suited up for either of the Houston Texans' first two games, as it appears the coaching staff prefers Xavier Hutchinson as the fifth wideout while allotting a spot to Steven Sims as a returner.

    Texans' John Metchie: Inactive in Week 1

    Metchie (coach's decision) is inactive Week 1 against the Colts.Matchie was targeted in each of Houston's preseason contests, but when push came to shove, he was simply too far down on the depth chart in a loaded wide receiver room. With Sunday's inactive designation, it appears even the likes of Xavier Hutchinson and Steven Sims have surpassed Metchie, as both will be active for the season opener.
