15 Days to Purdue Football: DaMarcus Mitchell

Purdue needed help at linebacker last year, and it definitely got it in today’s player.

DaMarcus Mitchell - Sr.

Thibodaux, LA (SW Mississippi Community College)

6’3”, 265 pounds

Defensive End/Linebacker

2021 Projection: Starter

For his first year at the FBS level last year Mitchell had a great season. Purdue brought him in to shore up the linebacker position and he did more than that. He ended up starting five of the six games, finishing third on the team with 34 tackles. He also had six tackles for loss, a sack, and two pass breakups.
