Overview
- New York’s Week 12 loss in Baltimore featured Metchie leading the Jets with six receptions on seven targets for 65 yards and their only touchdown.
- In three games since the Oct. 29 acquisition, he has 10 catches for 113 yards and two receiving touchdowns, including scores in back-to-back weeks.
- Glenn praised Metchie’s leadership and preparation, noting he arrives daily at 6 o’clock to catch roughly 300 balls and has quickly integrated into the offense.
- The Jets acquired Metchie from the Eagles for Michael Carter II in a late-round 2027 pick swap, a move some analysts have labeled a low-risk addition credited to GM Darren Mougey.
- With Garrett Wilson sidelined by a knee injury and Tyrod Taylor starting in Week 12, Metchie has seized a larger role, and he enters the offseason as a pending restricted free agent.
