This Tuesday, AD Mitchell, the wide receiver for the University of Texas, declared his entry into the 2024 NFL Draft.

In a social media post announcing his departure, Mitchell expressed gratitude to both the Texas Longhorns and Georgia Bulldogs communities, coaches, and players for their unwavering support during his collegiate journey. He also expressed pride in his time at Georgia.
