John Metchie highlights Patriots and Dolphins as teams of interest at NFL Combine

Alabama football boasted two 1,000+ yard receivers in 2021, and one has arrived at the NFL Scouting Combine to speak to reporters.

John Metchie had a career in three seasons. He finished seventh all-time in school history for receptions (155) and receiving yards (2,081). Metchie stands third all-time for receptions in a single season (96) and seventh for yards (1,142) after his efforts in 2021.

He led the team in catches and totaled eight touchdowns as a junior.

Metchie sustained a knee injury in the Southeastern Conference Championship Game versus Georgia.

He missed the College Football Playoff, and Alabama’s offense struggled in the CFP title game without him.
