Gang Green Nation on Adonai Mitchell
From the article
In eight games with the Jets Mitchell produced just two games with more than three receptions and just two games with more than 43 receiving yards. He caught just 41% of his targets, produced an abysmal 5.2 yards per target, and his quarterbacks had an unholy 41 passer rating throwing to Mitchell.
STACKED’s take
Mitchell's 2025 WR1 stint was disastrous (41% catch rate, 5.2 Y/T); competent QB play needed to prove viability.
Mitchell unable to put it all together since drafted two years ago; buried on Colts depth chart before Sauce Gardner trade to Jets. With Wilson sidelined, Mitchell became de facto WR1 for Jets rest of 2025 but did not thrive: 8 games, 2 games with 3+ receptions, 2 games with 43+ receiving yards, 41% catch rate, 5.2 yards per target, 41 passer rating from quarterbacks throwing to him. Mitigating factor: started QBs were Justin Fields (1 game), Tyrod Taylor (3 games), Brady Cook (4 games). Question remains what Mitchell can be with competent starter, though training camp rumors optimistic for 2026. Mitchell struggles with contested catches, drops, and physical coverage.
