Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and head coach Nick Sirianni reacted to the trade acquisition of wide receiver John Metchie III.

The Philadelphia Eagles acquired wide receiver John Metchie III in a trade with the Houston Texans on Sunday. The Eagles made the trade official on Monday. The Eagles traded tight end Harrison Bryant and a 2026 fifth-round pick in exchange for Metchie and a 2026 sixth-round pick.

The Philadelphia Eagles acquired wide receiver John Metchie from the Houston Texans for veteran tight end Harrison Bryant, a person with knowledge of the trade said.

The Eagles traded for Houston Texans wide receiver John Metchie on Sunday, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Metchie could become the team’s No. 4 WR this season. Johnny Wilson, Darius Cooper and Ainias Smith have each played well during training camp, but it wasn’t enough to stop Philadelphia from adding more depth.

The San Francisco 49ers are desperate for wide receiver help, so it should be no surprise that they called the Houston Texans about a wideout.
