Mizzell was an undrafted free agent from Virginia. He did not get a combine invite, but at about 5’10”, 185 pounds, you could understand what type of back he profiles as.
NFL.com saw his strengths as quick-footed, elusive runner who can contribute in the passing game. However, his weaknesses are his size and inability to run between the tackles along with him being called a “juke junkie”.
For those who may have wanted to make Jeremy Langford a de facto wide receiver, you will see the addition of Mizzell as a potential upgrade.
In his limited time in the preseason the best highlight he showed was working out of the slot.
