Metchie caught six of seven targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason game against the Giants.
Metchie had a couple of meh showings in the Hall of Fame Game and first preseason tilt, disappointing head coach DeMeco Ryans, but he responded Saturday. Metchie led the team in targets, receptions and yards as he positioned himself behind the team's top three wideouts. He's competing against Noah Brown (shoulder), Xavier Hutchinson (two of four targets, 20 yards), Steven Sims (two of two, 20 yards), Ben Skowronek (leg) and Robert Woods (zero targets, 13 snaps) for the back end of the wide receiver depth chart.
