John Metchie III News
Wednesday, March 11, 1:44 PM
Former New York Jets wide receiver John Metchie III is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Metchie will reunite with quarterback Bryce Young, with whom he played college ball at Alabama. The 25-year-old was originally a second-round pick (44th overall) by the Houston Texans in the 2022 NFL draft. Metchie had an unfortunate setback with a cancer diagnosis and missed the entire 2022 season, but he has slowly bounced back and posted a career-high 274 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 33 receptions in 16 games (seven starts) with the Jets and Philadelphia Eagles last year. Metchie will now head to the NFC South, where he'll serve in a depth role behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker. His previous connection with Young should help, but barring an injury ahead of him on Carolina's WR depth chart, it's hard to imagine Metchie having much weekly fantasy football appeal in 2026.

Brycen Tremayne News
Thursday, August 28, 10:27 AM
The Carolina Panthers are "bullish" on wide receiver Brycen Tremayne, according to Joseph Person of The Athletic. Tremayne went undrafted out of Stanford in 2023 and appeared in two games for the Washington Commanders in 2024, but he was able to crack Carolina's 53-man roster out of training camp. The Panthers traded veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen to the Minnesota Vikings on Wednesday, so Tremayne could now be one of the players Carolina calls upon to replace Thielen's production. The 25-year-old will open the season behind Tetairoa McMillan, Jalen Coker, and Xavier Legette in the team's wide receiver pecking order, leaving him to battle with David Moore and Jimmy Horn Jr. for the WR4 role in Carolina.
