Adonai Mitchell thriving with Jets after trade from Colts
Summary

Adonai Mitchell has shown significant improvement since being traded to the New York Jets from the Indianapolis Colts. Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich praised Mitchell's chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith as the offseason workouts continue.

The Colts originally selected him with the 52nd overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, and his fresh start in New York may position him for a breakout season. The Jets' coaching staff is optimistic about his ongoing development as they prepare for the regular season.
