Metchie, who's entering the final year of his rookie contract, was shipped off to Philadelphia for a 2026 fifth-round pick and tight end Harrison Bryant. The Eagles are regained their 2026 sixth-round pick from the C.J. Gardner-Johnson trade from March.

The Houston Texans made a trade this past week to deal wide receiver John Metchie III to the Philadelphia Eagles, paired with a sixth-round pick, in exchange for tight end Harrison Bryant and a fifth-round pick.

After spending the first three years of his career with the Houston Texans, wide receiver John Metchie III is reportedly on the move.
