Summary

The Eagles acquired wide receiver John Metchie III and a 2026 sixth-round pick from the Texans in exchange for tight end Harrison Bryant and a 2026 fifth-round pick on Sunday, according to multiple reports. Sheil discusses the trade and what Metchie can bring to this Eagles offense (01:35). Plus, the Phillies were hit with some devastating news that ace pitcher and Cy Young candidate Zack Wheeler has a blood clot in his throwing arm and has been placed on the 15-day IL. How will Wheeler’s injury affect their chances as the season winds down (20:39)? Email hot takes: Ringerphilly@gmail.com.
