The Indianapolis Colts training camp has been rolling for nearly two weeks now and one thing has remained consistent. Former Texas Longhorns wide receiver Adonai Mitchell looks like he's going to be an absolute capital "P" problem for opposing NFL defenses.
This week in particular has been a huge win for Adonai Mitchell as he's seemed to stack great plays on great plays in every single practice. And the confidence is clearly starting to build as Mitchell looks more comfortable with each day.

Mitchell is still locked in a heated battle for the outside "X" wide receiver role with Alec Pierce in training camp while Michael Pittman Jr. is still rocking the "Z" role and Josh Downs holds down the slot. Given how explosive Mitchell has looked thus far it seems Pierce is going to take a quick back seat to the second round rookie stud wide receiver. It's still early, but Mitchell is already playing like the absolute steal many thought the Colts got on NFL Draft day.
