Quinyon Mitchell made Davante Adams eat his pre-game words in Eagles win over Rams

The Philadelphia Eagles were going to need an All-Pro performance from second-year cornerback Quinyon Mitchell against the Los Angeles Rams.

Per the NFL's Next Gen Stats, that's precisely what he delivered. With the task of "locking down" future NFL Hall of Famer Davante Adams, Mitchell put together one of the better performances for a cornerback during this young season, helping the Eagles pull off a 33-26 comeback win over the Rams.
