Totals 23 yards in loss to Rams
Mitchell rushed four times for six yards and caught all three of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Rams.
Handpicked by first-year OC Mike McDaniel as a free-agent signing in the offseason, Mitchell has been a total non-factor for much of the first half of the season. With a career 5.7 yards per carry average, Mitchell is averaging just 3.7 yards per rush this season. Involved in a three-way backfield committee with Omarion Hampton and Kimani Vidal, Mitchell is waiver-wire fodder in normal-sized 12-team fantasy leagues.
