Jets Newcomers Adonai Mitchell, John Metchie Face Uncertain Week 10 Roles After Deadline Deals

Coach Aaron Glenn says both receivers are still learning the system with their immediate usage yet to be determined.

Overview

  • Glenn was non-committal on whether Mitchell or Metchie will play against the Browns in Week 10 as the team evaluates their readiness.
  • Mitchell arrived from the Colts in the trade that sent Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis, a deal that also netted New York first-round picks in 2026 and 2027.
  • Metchie was acquired from the Eagles for cornerback Michael Carter II after a prior August trade from Houston, and he has four catches for 18 yards this season.
  • Glenn labeled Mitchell a true outside X who can win one-on-ones and described Metchie as a slot route specialist, projecting complementary roles behind Garrett Wilson.
  • The Jets also added defensive tackle Mazi Smith in the Quinnen Williams trade as part of a longer-term reset built on draft capital, with fantasy analysts advising patience on the new receivers for Week 10.
