In what appeared to be a pretty solid performance for about three quarters, the wheels fell off a bit for 2024 first-round pick cornerback Quinyon Mitchell as the Philadelphia Eagles blew a 14-point fourth quarter lead to lose to the Denver Broncos 21-17 on Sunday.
Mitchell, who through the first four games (and three quarters) has been one of the NFL's best defensive backs this season. While Mitchell's performance wasn't the worst among NFL cornerbacks by any means, his late-game implosion is what will be remembered during film study and by pundits come Monday morning (or even Sunday night).
