Why it Matters: Mitchell struggled running the ball, but he did finish with at least three receptions for the third game in a row. The emergence of Kimani Vidal the past two weeks will make it hard for Mitchell to warrant flex consideration, but Mitchell should still be rostered in case Omarion Hampton were to miss time. At the very least, he and Vidal would likely split touches in that scenario with Mitchell having more of a role in the passing game.
