“I feel, enraged, useless, scared you know?” Mitchell answered in the film. “I don’t have any memories of myself without [football]. That’s how I was going to take care of my family.”

He then detailed all of injuries he suffered throughout his career, including a series of knee injuries that began in high school.

“I broke my leg in seventh grade, then a torn meniscus in 10th grade [and] another torn meniscus my sophomore year of college [at University of Georgia],” he said.
