John Metchie III Taking Advantage of Opportunity in New York
New York Jets wide receiver John Metchie III had one of the best games of his young career in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens, hauling in six catches for 65 yards and a touchdown on seven targets in his team's 23-10 loss. Metchie III has now caught touchdown passes in back-to-back weeks and looks to be emerging as one of the top pass-catchers in New York, with star wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) currently sidelined by a knee injury. In another encouraging development, the Jets' passing game as a whole looked significantly more competent in Week 12 after making the switch at quarterback from Justin Fields to Tyrod Taylor. Taylor threw for 222 yards against Baltimore in Week 12, while Fields had failed to reach even 125 passing yards in four out of his last five starts. Given the clear opportunity for Metchie III in New York, he could be a player for deep-league fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
