Mitchell re-signed with the Colts on Thursday, Amanda Foster of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The cornerback played on 225 defensive snaps across eight games with the Colts last year, recording 18 tackles (14 solo) and four pass breakups. Mitchell also spent time on Indy's practice squad and on the Browns in 2025. The 2023 fifth-round pick has played on more than 200 defensive snaps in all three of his NFL seasons.

Mitchell (calf) will be an unrestricted free agent after he was not tendered by the Texans on Wednesday, per the NFL transaction report.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell suited up for the Browns for the team's first two games of the 2025 regular season before being let go in late September. He caught on with the Colts in November and appeared in 10 regular-season games for Indianapolis, finishing with 18 tackles (14 solo) and four pass defenses. Mitchell served in a rotational role in the Colts secondary before he suffered a calf injury against the Texans in Week 18. The 2023 fifth-rounder should garner interest from teams looking to add depth in the secondary.

Mitchell is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Texans due to a calf injury, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return for the second half of Sunday's contest. Johnathan Edwards is in line for more snaps at outside corner for as long as Mitchell is sidelined.

The Colts waived Mitchell on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell signed with the Colts in early November for added depth in the secondary. The decision to move on from the 24-year-old makes room for Charvarius Ward to come off injured reserve. Mitchell appeared in just one game for the Colts this season, accounting for two total tackles (one solo).

The Colts signed Mitchell off their practice squad Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The Northwestern product has appeared in five games with the Browns and Colts this season, recording three total tackles over 103 total snaps (97 on defense, six on special teams). Now that Mitchell is back with Indianapolis' active roster, he's expected to play a depth role in the secondary in the Week 9 matchup against the Steelers.

Mitchell tallied 24 tackles (16 solo) and two passes defensed across 17 regular-season appearances with the Browns in 2024.

EDGE Analysis

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 (knee) is active for Saturday's Week 18 battle against Baltimore.

EDGE Analysis

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

EDGE Analysis

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, included 1.0 sacks, and two passes defensed last season and has played all 13 games in a depth role in 2024.

Mitchell (hamstring) has returned to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell exited early in the fourth quarter due to cramping but has since recovered. He's taken back over on defense as the team's slot corner.
