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.

Jake Bobo News
Monday, March 23, 1:06 PM
The Seattle Seahawks are matching the Jacksonville Jaguars' multi-year offer to wide receiver Jake Bobo, according to Field Yates of ESPN. The Jaguars signed Bobo to an offer sheet last week, but he will now return to the Super Bowl champions on a two-year, $5.5 million deal that includes $4.5 million guaranteed. The 27-year-old can continue to be ignored for fantasy football purposes, both in refraft and keeper/dynasty formats. In his third year in the NFL with Seattle in 2025, Bobo caught both of his targets for only 20 yards and no touchdowns in 11 regular-season games (zero starts). Overall, in his three years with the team, he has just 34 catches for 323 yards and three touchdowns on 44 targets through 45 games played (three starts). Bobo will return to serve in a depth role behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, and Rashid Shaheed.
