  • Texans' John Metchie: May be ready for offseason program

    Rotowire

    Texans general manager Nick Caserio said Wednesday that Metchie (illness) could be ready to participate in the offseason program, Daniel Gotera of KHOU 11 Houston reports.

    Metchie spent his entire rookie season on the reserve/non-football illness list after being diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia back in July, but he looks like he may be cleared to return to football activities as early as the start of offseason workouts. The 2022 second-round pick entered the NFL recovering from an ACL tear, but his knee injury wasn't expected to be an issue for last summer's training camp.

    Metchie (knee) released a statement Sunday that said he recently was diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia and likely won't be playing football during the 2022 campaign.

Regardless, the rookie second-round pick is expected to take as much time as necessary before returning to football activities. Metchie's statement said, "My main focus will be on my health and recovery. Thank you in advance for your support and well-wishes. I cannot wait to come back stronger than ever. God bless."
