Philadelphia Eagles select cornerback Quinyon Mitchell with the No. 22 pick in the NFL draft

Associated Press  

PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles selected Toledo cornerback Quinyon Mitchell with the No. The Eagles believe they have a shutdown cornerback who projects as an impact player with fellow cornerback Darius Slay in defensive coordinator Vic Fangio’s scheme. Eagles general manager Howie Roseman and the scouts have hit more often than they have missed in recent drafts — one reason the Eagles went to the Super Bowl in the 2022 season and followed with a 10-1 start last season before a late-season meltdown. Roseman said he was “comfortable” the Eagles would get a player they wanted at 22, one reason why he didn’t trade up in the draft.
