Can Mitchell be 'Robin' that Jets are searching for?

Adonai Mitchell is emerging as the New York Jets’ best bet to be the “Robin” alongside Garrett Wilson’s “Batman,” as receivers coach Shawn Jefferson said. In Wilson’s first four Jets seasons, his early-week receiving partners included Corey Davis, Allen Lazard, Mike Williams and Josh Reynolds, none of whom topped 32 catches. The Jets have leaned on Wilson and running back Breece Hall as the offensive core, searching for a reliable third option after victories eluded them. Wilson set career highs in 2024 with 101 catches, 1,104 yards and seven touchdowns, helped by Davante Adams drawing coverage. Mitchell, acquired from Indianapolis in last season’s Sauce Gardner trade, is under contract through 2027.
