Regarding the camps of the season and training of the NFL 2025, there will necessarily be some difficult decisions of the alignment which should follow in the coming weeks before the first week, because the lists will inevitably be mixed from 90 to 53 names, several catchy players will probably find themselves through the door or the release.
For Houston Texans, they are far from being excluded. This offseason was the one where a few talented names were added to the edges on both sides of the list, but with these additions, the subtractions eventually take place before this year’s bearing.
And when you take a step back to watch a player who is most likely to be shipped from Houston in a business leading to the next regular season, there could be a key name in the mixture that Texans fans should have surrounded.
Among Pro Football Focus’ Bradley Locker’s The 15 best trade candidates in the NFL training camps this year, the Texans receiver John Metchie III leads the pack for Houston as the first name to be treated – largely due to the competition that surrounds it at the post, and could be the best decision for Texans and Large Young people.
“Houston’s offensive decreased in 2024, finishing 19th in EPA Global by play and only 21st, including EPA by play. Although the team receptors were not a culprit, the team has a new harvest in the post, which could leave Metchie without a designated place. Since it was chosen in the second round in 2022, Metchie failed in all the punctuals, he even reached a product 60.5 PFF at reception in a full year in a full year.
“After losing Stefon Diggs and with Tank Dell suffering from a serious knee injury at the end of last season, the Texans acquired Christian Kirk via trade and written Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel. Considering that Nico Collins will also return, who probably positions Metchie behind all these options, if not the newcomers of the league.
Not only for the good that his role is swallowed in this body of reception of the Texans, but also because of the value that Metchie holds, he could have a team on the market interested in coveting his services. It is enough to be 25 years old and less than three years on the field, a team auré of the receiver could see the product of the Alabama with a certain advantage which is worth taking a dart on once the alignment begins to be deposited before the season.
It is far from certain that the Texans will press the trigger of their young wide receiver only two years on board, but after an offseason also occupied at the post, the movement of Metchie out of the image could certainly be in the cards.
