TUCSON — Toledo All-American cornerback Quinyon Mitchell will not play in the Arizona Bowl against Wyoming.

The junior from Williston, Fla., is dressed in sweatpants and his No. 27 UT jersey.

The two-time All-American is expected to declare for the NFL Draft. Several draft experts project him as a first-round pick.

Mitchell led the FBS in total forced incompletions (35) the past two seasons and has a 95.1 cumulative coverage grade (out of 100), according to Pro Football Focus. He currently ranks second nationally in passes defended (19) and pass breakups (18).
