Few players are as well-traveled as former Alabama wide receiver John Metchie III. He was born in Taiwan and moved to the Western African country of Ghana before his family settled in Canada when he was just six years old. Metchie played high school football in Maryland prior to finding his way to Tuscaloosa, Ala.
A four-star recruit with more than 20 offers, Metchie said he chose Alabama for the high degree of competition. During his time with the Crimson Tide, his role grew each year, becoming a second-team All-SEC honoree before declaring for the 2022 NFL Draft as a true junior. He led Alabama in receptions and saw his final season come to a premature end in the conference championship game, costing him the playoff run.
