## Resource

John Metchie is heating up as the Houston Texans’ top rookie contender, turning heads with touchdown connections to C.J. Stroud at minicamp. After a breakout rookie season where he played in all 17 games, hauled in 26 catches for 292 yards, ran the ball six times, and racked up over 1,000 yards on returns, Metchie is now poised to lock down the No. 3 receiver role in a crowded WR room. With Tank Dell sidelined and Xavier Hutchinson also vying for reps, Metchie’s versatility and playmaking could make him Stroud’s go-to target this season — and his development could be the key to unlocking the Texans’ offense.
