Redskins’ rookie Telvin Mitchell likely done for the season

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden told reporters on Monday that rookie cornerback Telvin Mitchel is likely done for the season after suffering a torn labrum in his shoulder during Saturday’s practice.

Gruden said rookie CB Tevin Mitchel’s shoulder surgery will likely keep him out for the entire season.

Mitchell was drafted in the sixth round during this past May’s NFL draft and was expected to pick up some of the slack left behind by second-year corner Bashaud Breeland who suffered an MCL injury last week that will keep him out until early in the regular season.
