WR Adonai Mitchell
If you’re wondering how Adonai Mitchell became one of Geno Smith’s early go-to targets in training camp, you can thank Mitchell’s short trip to the Sunshine State earlier this summer.
Smith trained down in Florida and Mitchell, among some other teammates, made the trip as well to get extra reps in with their QB.
“The sun was on the field with us, I’m telling you, it was so hot,” Mitchell said before explaining what he picked up from Smith. “I mean, yeah, just understanding his mind, understanding the way he thinks, understanding the way he sees the game and vice versa. Him understanding how I see the game. Anytime you can get on the same page with a quarterback, it will always be great.”
Mitchell is more comfortable than when he started with Jets midway through last season and it has shown with his quick start to camp. On Saturday during the NFL’s Back Together Weekend, Mitchell caught 2 TDs.
