Mitchell tallied 24 tackles (16 solo) and two passes defensed across 17 regular-season appearances with the Browns in 2024. Mitchell began the year in a rotational role on defense, but he was thrust into a more notable gig down the stretch due to the placement of Greg Newsome (hamstring) on IR in Week 15. The 2023 fifth-round pick will spend the offseason working to progress in his development, though he figures to return to a reserve role for the 2025 campaign.

Mitchell tallied 24 tackles (16 solo) and two passes defensed across 17 regular-season appearances with the Browns in 2024. Mitchell began the year in a rotational role on defense, but he was thrust into a more notable gig down the stretch due to the placement of Greg Newsome (hamstring) on IR in Week 15.

Mitchell (knee) is active for Saturday's Week 18 battle against Baltimore. Mitchell dealt with a knee issue at the end of the practice week and was deemed questionable heading into the weekend. However, the injury won't prevent him from suiting up Saturday. Mitchell has held an increased role since Week 15 due to Greg Newsome (hamstring) landing on IR, and Mitchell should log another start in the slot in Cleveland's season finale.
Mitchell (knee) is questionable to play in Saturday's contest against the Ravens. Mitchell popped up on the injury report Thursday with a knee injury, which forced him to be a limited participant at the team's final practice of the week. The cornerback's status for Week 18 is now up in the air and if he can't go, Rodney McLeod would stand to see an increase in workload in Mitchell's absence.
Mitchell will replace Greg Newsome (hamstring) as the slot cornerback in Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. Newsome injured his hamstring late in last Sunday's loss to the Steelers and eventually landed on injured reserve. Mitchell, a fifth-round draft pick in 2023, was in a similar position during his rookie season, filling in for injured starters late in the season. He recorded 18 tackles, 1.0 sacks and two passes defensed last season and has played all 13 games in a depth role in 2024.
The cornerback made three tackles before leaving the game. The rookie entered Sunday's contest with five on the season.
