    Texans' John Metchie: Plays minor role on offense

    Metchie secured 24 of 37 targets for 254 yards and one touchdown across 13 regular-season games with the Houston Texans in 2024. He also suited up for both of Houston's playoff games, securing six of 10 targets for 63 yards.Metchie, a 2022 second-round pick, missed his entire rookie campaign due to illness and has since carved out a rotational role on on offense with the Texans. There was opportunity for Metchie to earn more significant opportunities on offense in 2024, with both Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee) sidelined down the stretch, but even with expanded target volume the former Alabama standout struggled to efficiently produce. He's now heading into the final year of his rookie deal with Houston.

    Texans' John Metchie: Limited production on eight targets

    Metchie recorded four receptions on eight targets for 28 yards in Saturday's 32-12 win over the Chargers. He also lost a fumble.Metchie's day got off to a rough start, as he fumbled after a seven-yard reception on Houston's first offensive play of the game. He recovered to tie for the team lead with eight targets, though he was inefficient with his opportunity and also tallied a long catch of only 10 yards. He should maintain a key role throughout Houston's postseason run due to both Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee) being sidelined for the long term.

    Texans' John Metchie: Active Saturday

    Metchie (shoulder) is listed as active for Saturday's wild-card game against the Chargers.Metchie got a concussion check last Sunday at Tennessee, but a shoulder injury ultimately didn't allow him to practice Tuesday before he progressed to limited Wednesday and a full session Thursday. Despite receiving a questionable tag for the Houston Texans' playoff opener, he'll be available to the Texans offense Saturday. Since fellow WR Tank Dell (torn ACL) joined Stefon Diggs (torn ACL) as out for the season Week 16, Metchie produced a 7-72-0 line on 12 targets over the final two games of the regular season.

    Texans' John Metchie: Full practice, but questionable

    Metchie (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Chargers after practicing fully Thursday.Metchie, who was listed as a non-participant Tuesday, was limited Wednesday and closed out the Houston Texans' practice week with an uncapped session Thursday, which bodes well for his chances of being available for Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff. If, however, Metchie ends up limited or out versus Los Angeles, added snaps behind top wideout Nico Collins would be available for some combination of Robert Woods, Diontae Johnson and Xavier Hutchinson.

    Texans' John Metchie: Limited in return to practice

    Metchie (shoulder) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.After missing Tuesday's practice, Metchie's return to the field a day later bodes well for his availability for Saturday's playoff opener against the Chargers.

    Texans' John Metchie: Getting concussion check

    Metchie is under evaluation for a head injury during Sunday's game at Tennessee.Metchie was on the receiving end of a big hit from Titans safety Daryl Worley late in the third quarter that drew a flag for unnecessary roughness. The wide receiver was able to walk to the sideline of his own volition but went straight to the sideline tent. If Metchie is diagnosed with a concussion, he'll end Week 18 with two catches (on three targets) for 24 yards.

    Texans' John Metchie: Returns with elevated role

    Metchie (shoulder) recorded five receptions for 48 yards on eight targets in Wednesday's 31-2 loss to Baltimore.Metchie returned from a one-game absence due to the shoulder injury and found himself in an elevated role in the passing game after wideout Tank Dell suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 16. The 24-year-old Metchie led the Houston Texans in targets Wednesday, with the eight passing-game looks representing a season-high total. Metchie's increased usage should put him on the map as a lineup option in deeper fantasy formats in Houston's regular-season finale against the Titans next weekend.

Prior to the recent absence, Metchie had recorded at least one catch in five consecutive contests en route to a 13-146-1 line on 18 targets.

    Texans' John Metchie: Estimated as limited Sunday

    Metchie (shoulder) was listed as limited on Sunday's practice estimate, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.The Houston Texans played the Chiefs on Saturday, so the team didn't actually hold a practice a day later. In any case, the status of Metchie -- who was inactive against Kansas City -- gains added import ahead of Wednesday's game against the Ravens, given that fellow wideout Tank Dell is in line to miss time with a knee injury.
