The story of John Metchie is enough to bring tears to eyes of every Alabama football fan.
He played the game the right way at the University of Alabama under Nick Saban.
The native Canadian arrived on campus in 2019 and helped the Crimson Tide to two Southeastern Conference Championship in 2020 and 2021. Metchie was on Alabama’s undefeated College Football Playoff National Championship team in 2020.
He was one of the more underrated wide receivers in school history, but many did not know how tough he was until adversity hit him before the start of his rookie season in the National Football League.
