News: 12 hours agoHead coach Aaron Glenn said Wednesday that Mitchell (finger) remains week-to-week, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Spin: Mitchell has sat out the Jets' last two games and looks on his way to missing a third straight contest Sunday against the Browns. In Mitchell's absence over the previous two weeks, Isaiah Williams and practice-squad member Sterling Shepard have been rounding out three-receiver sets behind Garrett Wilson, but the Jets could also get Tim Patrick (groin) back from injured reserve this week after his 21-day practice window was opened Wednesday.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Mitchell is entering his first full campaign with the Jets, having been acquired in the Sauce Gardner trade during the 2025 season. After playing sparingly during his first 25 NFL games (all with the Colts), the 2024 second-round pick handled a hefty 24.4% target share in eight games with New York last season. The usage led to two fantasy outings with 17-plus points, but he was otherwise a nonfactor (4.0 PPG). Efficiency remains an issue, as Mitchell's 44% catch rate ranks last, and his 6.0 yards per target is fourth worst among 77 receivers with 100-plus targets since he entered the league. The vertical threat will compete with rookie Omar Cooper Jr. for No. 2 duties opposite a now-healthy Garrett Wilson in the Jets' Geno Smith-led offense. Mitchell, 23, is not worth much more than late-round consideration.
