Dallas Cowboys (first stint)

[edit | edit source]

The Dallas Cowboys selected Mitchell in the seventh round (254th overall) of the 2014 NFL draft. Mitchell was the 33rd and final cornerback drafted.[6] His fall in the draft was speculated to be due to his performance at the NFL Combine, as teams deemed him too slow to play cornerback.[7]

On May 15, 2014, the Cowboys signed Mitchell to a four-year, $2.265 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $45,896.[8][9]

As a rookie, he was ineligible to participate in organized team activities (OTAs) until the University of Oregon classes ended. Throughout training camp, Mitchell competed for a roster spot as a backup cornerback against Sterling Moore, B. W. Webb, Tyler Patmon, and Dashaun Phillips.[10][11] On August 30, 2014, the Cowboys waived Mitchell.[12]

Chicago Bears

[edit | edit source]

On September 1, 2014, the Chicago Bears signed Mitchell to their practice squad.[13][14] On October 13, 2014, the Bears elevated Mitchell to their active roster, but remained inactive as a healthy scratch for the last ten games of the regular season.

Throughout training camp in 2015, Mitchell competed for a roster spot as a backup cornerback against Alan Ball, Demontre Hurst, Al Louis-Jean, Sherrick McManis, Jacoby Glenn, Qumain Black, and Bryce Callahan. Head coach John Fox named Mitchell the fourth cornerback on the depth chart to begin the regular season, behind Kyle Fuller, Alan Ball, and Sherrick McManis.[15]

In 2015, a notable preseason allowed him to make the roster by beating out Tim Jennings. He was sidelined after Week 5 with a hamstring injury. On November 17, he was released to make room for cornerback Jacoby Glenn.[16] On November 19, he was signed to the Bears' practice squad. He was released on November 23.

Dallas Cowboys (second stint)

[edit | edit source]

On December 2, 2015, he was signed by the Cowboys to the practice squad.[17] With cornerback Orlando Scandrick out with a season ending knee injury and Tyler Patmon struggling, Mitchell was promoted to the active roster on December 18 and was named the team's nickel cornerback.[18] In his first game against the New York Jets he registered a pass defensed and an interception, becoming one of two cornerbacks on the team to have an interception on the year. Against the Washington Redskins he sacked quarterback Colt McCoy, forcing a fumble. In three games, he registered 12 tackles, one sack, one interception and 2 passes defensed.

In 2016, he was used at nickel back and safety during OTAs. He was released on June 10.[19]

In 2017, he began the season as a starter at right cornerback for seven games in place of an injured Steven Nelson. In Week 3, he recorded two interceptions and nine tackles in a 24–10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. His performance against the Chargers was the first multi-interception game of his professional career.[26] On October 30, Nelson was activated to play against the Denver Broncos and Mitchell returned to a backup role behind Kenneth Acker. He finished with 9 starts out of 15 appearances and 4 interceptions.

Cleveland Browns

[edit | edit source]

On March 15, 2018, Mitchell signed a three-year, $12 million contract with the Cleveland Browns, reuniting with John Dorsey who was the general manager with the Chiefs.[27][28] He forced 2 fumbles and recovered one, in the second game 21–18 loss against the New Orleans Saints. He had a game-sealing interception in the third game 21–17 win against the New York Jets. Mitchell started the first four games of the season at right cornerback, before suffering a broken wrist in Week 4 against the Oakland Raiders.[29] He was placed on injured reserve on October 2, 2018.[30] He was activated off injured reserve on December 8, 2018.[31] He started 3 of the last 4 games, tallying 19 tackles and 3 passes defensed. He finished the season with 38 tackles, one interception, 6 passes defensed, 2 forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

In 2019, he appeared in 15 games with 4 starts, collecting 21 tackles and one interception. He did not play a snap in the seventh game against the New England Patriots.

In 2020, second-year player Greedy Williams was expected to be the starter at right cornerback opposite Denzel Ward, but was lost for the season with a nerve injury in his shoulder that he suffered midway through training camp. Mitchell was named the starter instead for all 16 games and both playoff contests. He posted 65 tackles (2 for loss), 3 forced fumbles and 13 passes defensed.
