Fantasy Impact:

Mitchell, who received a bump on the depth chart in the wake of Julian Edelman's injury, was placed on IR Thursday with a lingering knee injury. This could explain why the Patriots dealt for Philip Dorsett last week. As Mitchell had minimal fantasy value entering 2017, Dorsett, who had none, advances into Mitchell's bottom spot on the waiver priority list.
