After redshirting his freshman year, Mitchell recorded 107 receptions, 1,413 yards, and 14 touchdowns during his time in StarkVegas. Mitchell went undrafted in the 2021 NFL draft. The Dallas Cowboys scooped up Mitchell on May 14. He was then waived on August 31, and was promptly signed to the Cowboys practice squad the next day. He was ultimately cut from the practice squad on December 20. However, he remained persistent in pursuing his goals on a professional football career.
The Birmingham Stallions selected Mitchell with the 118th overall pick in the USFL draft. Mitchell helped lead the Stallions to a 9-1 record and a championship. Osirus Mitchell racked up 23 catches, 333 yards, and 3 touchdowns in 10 games in his singular season in The Magic City.
Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers provide hope for Osirus Mitchell's dreams to have a long and prosperous NFL career.
