Mitchell (knee) is now poised to work behind Derrick Henry, who is set to sign a two-year contract with the Ravens, Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Sun reports. Mitchell and Justice Hill now become the top backups to Henry, a four-time Pro Bowler and two-time NFL rushing leader, while J.K. Dobbins (Achilles) is looking at free agency and Gus Edwards is slated to ink with the Chargers. Both boast speed and pass-catching chops, making them worthy complements to Henry's overpowering rushing style, though Hill has the benefit of not needing to work his back from an ACL tear. General manager Eric DeCosta said at the combine in February that he's confident Mitchell will work his way back from injury and contribute during the 2024 season, per Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, but the timing of the 2023 UDFA's injury (suffered in December) makes his availability for Week 1 uncertain. Mitchell showcased elusiveness and big-play potential in limited action as a rookie, so if he can avoid losing his quick-twitch ability in the rehab process, he could prove to be a valuable contributor behind Henry, when healthy.

Now backing up Henry
Mitchell (knee) is now poised to work behind Derrick Henry, who is set to sign a two-year contract with the Ravens, Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Sun reports. Mitchell and Justice Hill now become the top backups to Henry, a four-time Pro Bowler and two-time NFL rushing leader, while J.K. Dobbins (Achilles) is looking at free agency and Gus Edwards is slated to ink with the Chargers. Both boast speed and pass-catching chops, making them worthy complements to Henry's overpowering rushing style, though Hill has the benefit of not needing to work his back from an ACL tear. General manager Eric DeCosta said at the combine in February that he's confident Mitchell will work his way back from injury and contribute during the 2024 season, per Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, but the timing of the 2023 UDFA's injury (suffered in December) makes his availability for Week 1 uncertain. Mitchell showcased elusiveness and big-play potential in limited action as a rookie, so if he can avoid losing his quick-twitch ability in the rehab process, he could prove to be a valuable contributor behind Henry, when healthy.
Scores early touchdown
Gus Edwards continued to lead the Baltimore backfield, as he tallied 12 touches compared to Mitchell's four. On the other hand, there's no doubt as to who the more explosive player was, as Mitchell found the end zone on a 39-yard touchdown run early in the first quarter. One possession later, he took a short pass for a 32-yard gain to set up a field goal. Mitchell was used only sparingly from there, but he's making the case for a bigger role and appears to have moved ahead of Justice Hill on the depth chart.
Unavailable Sunday
Mitchell will be forced to sit out after he suffered a hamstring strain in Week 7 versus the Lions. The running back was able to practice in full Friday, but he'll now shift his focus to returning in Week 9 against Seattle.
No practice
Mitchell got his first regular-season snaps on offense in Sunday's win over the Lions, but he injured his hamstring along the way and now is considered week-to-week. He's unlikely to practice this week or play in Sunday's game at Arizona.
Considered week-to-week
It's somewhat relieving news for Mitchell, who played his first two offensive snaps at the NFL level in Week 7 versus the Lions before leaving with a hamstring injury. There is an outside chance he could return to action as soon as Sunday at Arizona.
