John Metchie III Making Strides In Recovery From Leukemia

Houston Texans wide receiver John Metchie III is making "amazing" progress in his recovery from Leukemia, according to Texans general manager Nick Caserio. This is excellent news for the 22-year-old, who was diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia last summer and missed the entirety of his rookie season. Caserio also stated on Wednesday that there is a chance Metchie will participate in the team's offseason program starting in April. Metchie could be a name to monitor heading into the 2023-2024 campaign as Houston is expected to overhaul much of its offense and may trade receiver Brandin Cooks in the process.
