The Houston Texans have recently acquired Stefon Diggs, strengthening their already impressive group of receivers. Along with Diggs, they have Nico Collins, Tank Dell, Robert Woods, and Noah Brown. Adding to this talent is John Metchie, a second-round pick in 2022 who has faced challenges in his first two seasons due to health issues.
Despite missing his rookie season due to cancer treatments and dealing with a torn ACL and hamstring injury in the past two seasons, Metchie is finally fully healthy. Stroud believes that Metchie should not be underestimated based on these setbacks. Having witnessed his determination and work ethic firsthand, he has full confidence in his abilities.
Stroud emphasizes that Metchie is not only a talented football player but also a great person. Seeing his progress and commitment to getting back to peak performance on the field has been inspiring for the team. Stroud is excited to see Metchie showcase his skills and contribute to the team’s success this season. He is confident that Metchie will prove his potential and make a significant impact on the field. With a strong group of receivers like Metchie, the Texans are poised for a successful season ahead.
