Mitchell (calf) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell picked up an undisclosed calf injury during last weekend's wild-card game against the Texans and evidently isn't expected to recover in time for this weekend's divisional bout against the Chiefs. The 31-year-old veteran will consequently finish the 2018 campaign with 30 total tackles, one pick, and two forced fumbles over nine games (including playoffs). Mitchell will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the league year, but given the impact he's had in Indianapolis this season, it seems likely he'll have plenty of suitors on the open market.

Mitchell sustained a calf injury and will not return to Saturday's wild-card game at Houston, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell battled a calf issue throughout the second half of the season and he appeared to aggravate the injury on a blitz before being helped off the field by trainers. The Colts' three-man safety rotation will continue with Malik Hooker, Clayton Geathers and George Odum

Mitchell (calf) is active for Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell's status isn't overly surprising after he was a full participant in Friday's practice session. He could draw a spot start Sunday with starting safety Clayton Geathers (knee) sidelined for the game.

Mitchell (calf) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell was upgraded to a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited Wednesday and Thursday, and is trending in the right direction to suit up against the G-Men. If the veteran is able to take the field Week 16, he could be in line for an uptick in snaps with starter Clayton Geathers (knee) ruled out.

Mitchell (calf) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell missed the Colts' last two games due to a calf injury, and has now managed to return to practice on a limited basis. If the veteran safety is able to get healthy in time for Sunday's tilt against the Giants, he'll serve a rotational role behind Clayton Geathers (knee).

Mitchell (calf) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Zak Keefer of The Indianapolis Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell will miss his second straight game as he has dealt with calf issues intermittently since late October. George Odum should continue to work as a backup/rotational safety for the Colts with the veteran safety sidelined.

Mitchell (calf) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell has dealt with calf issues on-and-off since late October, and it will cost him a game this time around. George Odum will be the primary option at backup safety for the Colts in his absence.

Mitchell suffered a calf injury during Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Jaguars, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell suffered an ankle injury during the fourth quarter of the Week 13 loss and did not return to the field. If the veteran were to remain sidelined for any amount of time, George Odum would serve as the Colts' only healthy reserve safety.

Mitchell (calf) is active for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell avoids missing a game and will return to his role as a reserve safety. That leaves him without desirable IDP value due to making just nine tackles over the last three weeks.

Mitchell (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Jaguars, Phillip Heilman of The Florida Times-Union reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday but was unable to practice the rest of the week. The Ohio product is the only defensive back in jeopardy of missing Sunday's game. If Mitchell doesn't play Sunday, George Odum and Corey Moore could see an increase in work.
