Houston’s swap with Philadelphia reshapes two rosters: John Metchie III heads to the Eagles with Kenyon Green, while Philadelphia sends C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Harrison Bryant to Houston in a deal that includes returning a fifth and acquiring a sixth in the Green swap. The net effect: Metchie and Green land with the Eagles, Gardner-Johnson and Bryant to the Texans, and Houston keeps eight 2026 picks. The move tightens Houston’s TE room behind Brevin Jordan’s injury and gives Philadelphia a quicker slot option in a crowded WR group.

Fantasy angles swirl: Metchie arrives as a potential dart-throw recipient in Philly’s air-attack, Bryant adds veteran reliability for Houston, and Green injects interior versatility for the Eagles’ line. Gardner-Johnson’s departure shifts the Texans’ secondary, while Houston bolsters its depth with Bryant. The rosters shifts highlight QB risk-reward dynamics and depth-chart maneuvers that fantasy managers will watch closely into Week 1.
