With a questionable Xavier Legette sidelined with a knee injury and Jalen Coker departing early with a quad issue, Metchie was forced into three-receiver sets alongside Tetairoa McMillan and “Brycen Tremayne.” His touchdown was an eight-yarder late where he found the soft spot in the end zone. The Panthers are undoubtedly happy Metchie stepped up, but with Legette likely to return for Week 4, Metchie isn’t worth a waivers look even if Coker is forced to miss time.
