At least Joe Namath's team made it to the Super Bowl before he guaranteed that they would win it.

It will be fine if he has a good season. But if he tears his UCL in the 5th game of the season, his assertion of being pissed and choosing number 10 won't be a flattering look for a rookie wide receiver. Hopefully he will stay healthy, play well, and make it a moot point.

In the Colts' last chance to keep themselves alive for a playoff berth, Mitchell did not especially shine bright ...... and so, entirely of his own doing, his decision to call attention to himself with the shenanigans about wearing number 10 to prove a point about being disrespected in the 2024 NFL draft wound up being a rather unflattering look for the talented Colts rookie.
