Mason should be the main back up for the entire year.

He's the better RB.

Mitch brings more on pass downs imo, and out of the backfield

Mason isn't a bad route runner though.

I'm interested to see more of how Mason does in pass protection and running routes. Elijah is solid in both when healthy.

Just took a look at his stats and that clip is from Mason's first and only career NFL reception.

I'm assuming this dude means this year. RB's in the passing game was a huge issue of the past before CMC got here. Now, it's just plain stealing.

Mitchell hasn't had real snaps in so long people have forgotten the talent he is. Hope he gets it together because it only makes us better.

Good, he can be in uniform as he watches Jordan Mason takes his job.

He's better than Jordan Mason. He's a really good RB but so injury prone.

Excited to see him hopefully back out on the field finally. He's by far the most complete back on the team other than CMC and gives a lot more passing game flexibility than Mason does. Masons a good dude too, but people forget Mitchell had 1000 yards rushing his rookie season.
