Colts Make a Blockbuster Addition, Trading for Jets Star CB Sauce Gardner

Part of Gardner trade with Jets The Colts traded Mitchell and two first-round picks to the Jets for CB Sauce Gardner on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Indianapolis invested a second-round pick in Mitchell in the 2024 Draft, but the union never meshed, as the wide receiver totaled 32 catches (on 71 targets) for 464 yards and no touchdowns in 25 games. In the move to New York, he'll join a receiving corps led by Garrett Wilson but not much more, giving him a chance to rationalize the draft capital invested in him. With Wilson currently dealing with a knee injury, it remains to be seen how soon he'll get acclimated and up to speed with the Jets offense.

Just one reception in loss Mitchell had one reception for two yards on one target in Sunday's loss at Pittsburgh.

Impact Mitchell played four snaps on offense. He's still behind Ashton Dulin on the depth chart, who played seven snaps on offense. While it's encouraging he's getting any targets considering his demotion on the depth chart after a much-publicized mental error in Week 4 when he erased a would-be 76-yard receiving touchdown by dropping the ball prior to crossing the goal line, he's not likely to get much more playing time without injuries in the receiving corps.

No receptions in Week 8 win Mitchell failed to haul in his lone target while playing nine of the Colts' 53 snaps on offense in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.

Impact Since making a much-publicized mental error in Week 4 when he erased a would-be 76-yard receiving touchdown by dropping the ball prior to crossing the goal line in the third quarter of a loss to the Rams, Mitchell has seen his playing time get cut significantly. The return of Alec Pierce from a two-game absence was a contributing factor, but Mitchell has also been bypassed for the No. 4 spot on the depth chart at receiver by Ashton Dulin, who has out-snapped Mitchell in three of the past four weeks. With all of Indianapolis' key receivers back to full health, Mitchell doesn't appear likely to get another chance at logging extensive playing time anytime soon.

Bypassed on depth chart Mitchell had one reception for eight yards on his only target in Sunday's win over the Chargers.

Impact Mitchell didn't play last week and played just six snaps in Week 5 in the wake of key mistakes in Week 4 that saw him drop the football prior to passing the goal line to wipe out a would-be 76-yard touchdown and then committing a holding penalty to negate a 53-yard rushing touchdown. While he was active, he played just five snaps on offense and was bypassed on Anthony Gould for the No. 3 receiver role with both Josh Downs (concussion) and Ashton Dulin (chest) out with injuries. Gould played on 39 of the offense's 60 snaps.

Impact Mitchell's Week 4 performance against the Rams encapsulated both his upside and drawbacks, as he recorded 96 receiving yards but made multiple mental mistakes, including releasing the football just before crossing the goal line to turn a would-be touchdown into a touchback. He subsequently played just six snaps in Week 5 and was inactive in Week 6. Injuries have paved the way for the 2024 second-round draft pick to reclaim a role in three-receiver sets alongside Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce, but Mitchell will face a Chargers defense that has allowed only two touchdowns to wide receivers.

Inactive Sunday Mitchell is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports.

Impact With Alec Pierce (concussion) missing his second straight game, it was Ashton Dulin who moved into the starting three-receiver set and played on 47 of the offense's 66 snaps resulting in two receptions for 55 yards. Mitchell was demoted due to dropping the football prior to passing the goal line to wipe out a would-be 76-yard touchdown and then committing a holding penalty to negate a 53-yard rushing touchdown in Week 4. It's not clear if Mitchell's fall down the depth chart will last just one week or be a longer-term move.

OCTOBER 5, 2025 • INDYSTAR.COM

Set for limited role in Week 5 Mitchell is expected to serve in a limited role on offense for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Mitchell was given an opportunity at a larger role in Week 4 against the Rams due to the absence of Alec Pierce (concussion). Mitchell logged a stat line of three catches (on four targets) for 96 yards, but he should have had a 76-yard receiving touchdown to his name before fumbling the ball right before reaching the end zone. He followed that up with a holding penalty in the fourth quarter that negated a Jonathan Taylor 53-yard rushing touchdown. Pierce has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Las Vegas, but Fowler relays that veteran Ashton Dulin -- not Mitchell -- will likely see more snaps as the Colts' third receiver alongside Michael Pittman and Josh Downs.
