According to Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network, the Green Bay Packers have signed wide receiver Osirus Mitchell to a one-year contract just a day before the veterans are set to report for training camp. Mitchell is a 6’5”, 210-pound receiver who played college football at Mississippi State before going undrafted in 2021 and signing with the Dallas Cowboys. Mitchell was unable to make it through final cuts with Dallas but lasted through most of the season on the team’s practice squad.
After being released from the practice squad on December 20th, Mitchell turned his attention to the USFL where he played for the Birmingham Stallions, who went 9-1 and won the league’s inaugural championship.
