John Metchie a rare positive in another lost Jets season | amNewYork
"Well, perhaps other than John Metchie, who comes in every day at 6 AM and catches 300 balls before practice just to warm up. There are a lot of people who don't see what he does behind closed doors, Glenn said on Monday. He's here every morning, 6 o'clock indoors, catching 300 balls. You put all that together, with a lot of other things that he does, he's going to be successful."
"and doing so amidst a quarterback change that saw veteran Tyrod Taylor step in for Justin Fields on Sunday in Baltimore. It's a good feeling. Me and [fellow wide receiver Adonai Mitchell] are new here, there's moving pieces, Mitchie said. Tyrod, being the vet, it's a good feeling that there are guys who are passionate about the craft and getting up to speed as much as you. It's a good feeling."
The New York Jets clinched a 10th straight losing season after a 23-10 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. First-year head coach Aaron Glenn has yet to show tangible progress toward a winning program. John Metchie III, acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles on Oct. 29 in the Michael Carter II trade, has become the Jets' No. 1 receiver with Garrett Wilson injured. Metchie led the team with six catches for 65 yards and a touchdown in the loss and has scored in each of his last two games, totaling nine receptions for 110 yards. Metchie overcame a torn ACL in 2021 and a leukemia diagnosis after being drafted, and he displays a disciplined, early-morning work ethic.
