The Jets placed Mitchell (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell was carted off the field during the team's Week 4 win over the Steelers due to a knee injury and will now be forced to miss at least four games after landing on injured reserve. The Jets are expected to get Duane Brown back from IR in Week 5, so he'll take over as the starting left tackle, while Conor McDermott mans the right side moving forward.

Mitchell (undisclosed) was carted off the field Sunday against the Steelers, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell has been the Jets' starting right tackle this season. The nature of his injury is still unknown, however, needing to be carted off the field is not a good sign for a quick return. While he is out, Grant Hermanns will likely man the right-tackle spot.

The Jets selected Mitchell in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 111th overall.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell (6-foot-6, 307 pounds) played tackle at Louisiana but might need to focus on guard at the NFL level. He lacks reach by tackle standards (33 and 1/2-inch arms) and demonstrated only average athleticism at the combine, so Mitchell profiles more as a swing backup type than a definite starter for the Jets.
