Colts safety Mike Mitchell named DPOTW

Related Topics: Safety, Clayton Geathers

Mike Mitchell has played great in his first two games as a Colt. He has been responsible for 3 turnovers and has made some big tackles. The rest of the league has taken notice, as he was named Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Bills.

Mitchell has done a great job filling in for Clayton Geathers while he has been dealing with a neck injury. Normally you shouldn’t lose your job because of injury. But Mitchell has played so well, you can’t take him out of the starting lineup.

It might be best for the Colts to rest Geathers this week anyway.
