Adonai Mitchell is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for wide receivers. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 16% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell had a breakout game of sorts in Week 11. With WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) out for the game, Mitchell caught all six of his targets for 71 yards. Pittman could be set to miss significant time due to his injury, which would sustain bigger roles for the other WRs.

He was a full-time player in the new lineup, and that looks to stay consistent as long as MPJr can't take the field. He's clearly more talented than his fellow WR, Alec Pierce, so he should start to see the field more even if the team's No. 2 WR can return (Josh Downs is the lead WR now, in skill if not in playing time).
Mitchell was impressive against a brutally tough Bills defense. The rookie is already an elite separator, and that's the most important skill a WR can have in this league.

He will break out at some point. It will be too late to pick him up soon. Grab him while you can. If it's not this year, it will be next year (provided the team can figure out its quarterback situation).
