Report: Alabama Surgeon Not Worried About John Metchie, Jameson Williams Rehab

Former Alabama wide receivers Jameson Williams and John Metchie III are entering the NFL draft following torn ACLs last year. However, University of Alabama team orthopedic surgeon Dr. Lyle Cain said they are rehabbing well so far.

“They’re both doing really well,” Cain said, via The Athletic’s Jeff Howe. “I don’t expect either Jameson or John Metchie to have trouble with their knees. Once they recover and get past (the injury) to get back on the field, I don’t expect it to affect their career.”

Both Metchie and Williams made a strong impression on NFL scouts while they were on the field. Metchie played in 13 games last season, recording 96 catches for 1142 yards and eight touchdowns before going down in the SEC Championship Game.
