Not tendered by Ravens
The Ravens aren't placing a tender on Mitchell, allowing him to become an unrestricted free agent, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Mitchell went undrafted back in 2023, which means his original-round tender ($3.52 million) as a restricted free agent wouldn't have entailed any draft compensation. The Ravens opted it against, even though Mitchell averaged 5.1 carries for 30.3 yards (5.9 YPC) over the final 11 games of last season. Derrick Henry will return as Baltimore's lead runner, while passing-down specialist Justice Hill has been mentioned as a potential cap casualty (something that may or may not change with Mitchell becoming a free agent). Meanwhile, Fowler mentions the Giants as a potential suitor for Mitchell.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Few players' 2023 seasons were as anguishing to witness as Mitchell's, because the feel-good story of the undersized, undrafted speed demon who rose to improbable stardom gave way to the story of Mitchell's gruesome, season-ending knee injury. Although reported as a mere ACL tear, Mitchell's injury looked much worse than that and may ultimately be revealed to have entailed additional damage. The timing of the injury (Dec. 17) presents him with a challenge to be ready for Week 1, and even if that happens he'll just be a change-of-pace runner behind offseason addition Derrick Henry.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drew interest at trade deadline
Mitchell was the subject of trade inquiries from multiple teams at the trade deadline, but the Ravens rebuffed the offers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
That decision has paid dividends for Baltimore in recent weeks, as Mitchell scored a touchdown in Week 13 and broke free for a 55-yard run in Week 14, although he also picked up a knee injury in Sunday's loss to Pittsburgh. Over his three seasons in the NFL, the undrafted back has only 93 total carries in 22 regular-season games but has averaged 7.0 yards per carry, making him a dangerous change-of-pace option behind Derrick Henry. Mitchell will be a restricted free agent this offseason, but given the Ravens' reluctance to trade him, it seems likely that they will attempt to bring him back in 2026.
