Mitchell logged 46 tackles (37 solo) and 12 passes defended across 16 regular-season games in 2024. He tacked on 14 tackles (12 solo) and four passes defended, including two interceptions, across four playoff games. Mitchell made an immediate impact as a rookie, starting all 16 of his regular-season appearances opposite veteran Darius Slay. The first-round pick out of Toledo didn't record his first interception until the wild-card round win against Green Bay, and he got his second with a late interception during the NFC Championship game versus Washington. He ultimately finished second in Defensive Rookie of the Year voting behind the Rams' Jared Verse. Mitchell and Slay should once again form one of the NFL's best starting cornerback duos in 2025.
Mitchell (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Mitchell suffered a shoulder injury during the Eagles' NFC divisional-round win over the Rams. He was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated report, but his ability to practice in full Thursday indicates that he should be good to go for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Commanders. The 2024 first-round pick finished his first NFL regular season with 46 tackles (37 solo) and 12 pass defenses across 16 games.
Mitchell (shoulder) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's estimated report. Mitchell injured his shoulder in the first quarter of this past Sunday's NFC divisional-round win over the Rams. He was limited in Wednesday's walkthrough, but he told reporters after the session that he is "ready to go" for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Commanders, per Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer. While Mitchell has expressed optimism on his chances to play, his practice participation over the next two days will determine whether he enters Sunday's game with an injury designation.
Mitchell (shoulder) is believed to have avoided a major injury in Sunday's 28-22 NFC divisional-round win over the Rams, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports. Mitchell exited the game in the first quarter Sunday, ultimately remaining on the sidelines for the rest of the contest. The cornerback will now have a week to get ready to go for Philadelphia's matchup with the Commanders in the NFC conference-championship game. If he's unable to go, Isaiah Rodgers would likely draw the start versus Washington.
Mitchell (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's divisional-round game against the Rams. Mitchell's first-half shoulder injury will keep him sidelined for at least the remainder of Sunday's divisional-round matchup. It's unclear if the standout rookie cornerback will have a chance to return if the Eagles win and advance to next Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Commanders. Expect cornerback Isaiah Rodgers to step up into a bigger role for the time being.
Mitchell is questionable to return to Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Rams with a shoulder injury. Mitchell logged one tackle before exiting during the first quarter. The rookie first-rounder has been a standout cornerback for Philadelphia this season, tallying 46 tackles and 12 passes defended over 16 regular-season games. In Mitchell's absence, Kelee Ringo and/or Isaiah Rodgers will step up opposite CB1 Darius Slay.
Mitchell (rest) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants. Mitchell was a limited practice participant all week, as the Eagles were presumably pondering whether to keep him inactive for the regular-season finale while Philadelphia is locked into the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs. He ultimately wasn't included on the 11-player inactive list, and while Mitchell will suit up, it wouldn't be surprising if he played limited snaps or was held out of the game entirely. The rookie first-round pick has already established himself as a standout cornerback, as he enters Sunday's contest having recorded 46 tackles and 12 pass breakups through 16 appearances.
Mitchell has recently been getting most of the first-team reps at slot corner during training camp, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Mitchell, the rookie first-round pick by the Eagles, has seemingly captured the starting slot corner job from seven-year veteran Avonte Maddox. Mitchell primarily played at outside corner at Toledo, but Philadelphia already has Darius Slay, Isaiah Rodgers and Kelee Ringo at that position. Mitchell started Friday's preseason game against the Ravens at outside corner before being bumped to the slot, and head coach Vic Fangio said Sunday that it would "be ideal" for the rookie corner to focus his workload on one position. Mitchell played 30 snaps Friday (24 on defense, six on special teams) and finished with one pass defended and zero tackles.
