Overview
- Mitchell addressed teammates Monday after his fumble through the end zone erased a long touchdown in a 27-20 loss to the Rams.
- Head coach Shane Steichen said the receiver took accountability and will have to earn his role through preparation and practice.
- Mitchell also drew a late holding penalty that wiped out a 53-yard Jonathan Taylor touchdown run.
- Indianapolis committed 11 penalties, had three turnovers, and was caught with only 10 defenders on Tutu Atwell’s 88-yard go-ahead touchdown, a mistake Steichen accepted as his responsibility.
- Mitchell’s snap share could decrease if Alec Pierce clears concussion protocol as the Colts refocus on fundamentals before facing the Raiders.
