Earl Mitchell checks out WWE NXT workouts

The San Francisco 49ers have nose tackle Earl Mitchell locked up for three more years, after that he’ll be 33 and that’s an age that is usually the beginning of the end for one’s football career.

This isn’t indicative of anything, but WWE posted these out on instagram of some NXT visitors and look who’s there:

We have a special guest observing this weekend’s June Tryouts, @49ers’ @earlmitchell90!

For those of you who don’t follow, NXT is the WWE’s ‘farm’ league or developmental territory where they get their talent ready to go to the Raw or Smackdown rosters.
