Two-time All-American Quinyon Mitchell is practicing and competing in drills during the first day of Senior Bowl week in Mobile, Ala.
The former University of Toledo cornerback is a rising NFL draft prospect, with a majority of mock drafts projecting him to be a first-round selection. He led the country in forced incompletions the past two seasons and, in 2023, he was second in pass breakups and passes defenses.
A lot of eyes will be on Mitchell (6-foot-3, 195 pounds) this week, and so far, he’s been as good as advertised.
Here is a look at his highlights Tuesday on Day 1 of practice.

Love his patience/balance to transition with the WR and stay in his hip pocket all the way through the finish. pic.twitter.com/oJYbjPFYuZ
