John Metchie III is inching toward his NFL debut after he missed his entire rookie season with leukemia.
The Houston Texans' 2022 second-rounder was a full participant in the team's first voluntary offseason workouts this past week and general manager Nick Caserio thinks Metchie has a good chance to play in 2023.
"Nobody's worked harder over the last however many months to get himself to this point," Caserio said Saturday after the draft."So I wouldn't say anybody is surprised that he's arrived at this point. I would say his will to work, his effort, mental and physical toughness, and the work that the sports performance staff has been incredible.
"I would say it's kind of inspiring to see somebody do that. He's making progress. He's in a good spot. Haven't been any setbacks. Still a long road ahead of us, and he hasn't played a lot of football. We're all certainly cautiously optimistic about where he's headed."on July 24, 2022, just days before training camp started after he had already almost finished his recovery from a torn ACL at the end of his collegiate career.
