Mitchell had one reception for 30 yards on four targets in Sunday's 16-10 loss at Green Bay. Mitchell showed promise in the season opener when he was wide open for two possible touchdowns, but Anthony Richardson overthrew him. Mitchell worked as the No. 3 receiver and started in the slot again, but he could have a smaller role when Josh Downs (ankle) returns, possibly as soon as Week 3.

Alec Pierce (1 percent rostered) had the best game for the Colts receivers against Houston with three catches for 125 yards and a touchdown on three targets, but Mitchell nearly had a huge game as well on some missed opportunities. He finished one catch for 2 yards on five targets, and I want to stash Mitchell on my bench based on his upside, especially while Josh Downs (ankle) is out. Mitchell is worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

Mitchell caught one of five targets for two yards in Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Texans. The rookie wideout didn't make an impact in his NFL debut, but Mitchell had opportunities to do so and got overthrown by Anthony Richardson -- including on what would have been a wide-open touchdown in the second quarter. Mitchell finished second on the Colts in targets, but it's not clear how big a role he'll have when Josh Downs (ankle) gets healthy. Mitchell will try to establish more chemistry with his QB in Week 2 against the Packers.

Mitchell could see additional targets Sunday against the Texans, as JJ Stankevitz of the Colts' official site reports that Josh Downs (ankle) has been ruled out. Mitchell's likely to play primarily in the slot, but there will likely be more opportunities for both the rookie second-round draft pick and Alec Pierce alongside Michael Pittman in Downs' absence. Mitchell showed promising chemistry with quarterback Anthony Richardson as they connected for a touchdown in the preseason finale, and they will look to carry that success over into the regular season.

Mitchell is going to see an expanded role in Week 1 due to Josh Downs' injury and there's a chance he holds on to that role for the rest of the season. His size makes him an excellent red zone target and the Colts have been experimenting with playing him as a big slot in three-receiver sets. He's a fine flex in full PPR leagues where you start three receivers and a flex.
