NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports the Eagles are releasing RB Elijah Mitchell off injured reserve with an injury settlement.
Mitchell, 28, was a sixth-round pick out of Louisiana by the 49ers in the 2021 draft. He signed a four-year rookie deal with the team in May of that year worth $3,663,568, including a $183,568 signing bonus.
Mitchell was an unrestricted free agent for the first time this past offseason and signed with the Chiefs, but they waived him in mid-December. He later caught on with the Patriots and re-signed to a futures deal after the season.
New England cut him loose earlier this offseason and he caught on with the Eagles.
In 2025, Mitchell appeared in one game for the Chiefs.
