Adonai Mitchell Set to Return for New York Jets Against Miami Dolphins

FLORHAM PARK, NEW JERSEY, USA — October 23, 2026

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell is set to return to action against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday after missing four games following surgery on an injured finger.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Mitchell’s availability on Friday, October 23, providing a boost to the team’s receiving group ahead of the AFC matchup.

Mitchell Returns After Finger Surgery

Mitchell injured his finger during practice before the Jets’ Week 3 game against the Detroit Lions. The injury eventually required a surgical procedure, keeping him out of the team’s next four games.

In his first two games of the season, Mitchell recorded nine receptions for 123 yards. His return gives quarterback Geno Smith another receiving option and could help the Jets create more opportunities in the passing game.

Jets Prepare for the Dolphins

The Jets are preparing to face the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, October 25. Mitchell’s return comes as the team works to improve its offensive production.

Running back Breece Hall and left guard Dylan Parham were listed as questionable for the game because of their respective injuries, according to reporting on Friday. Their availability was still to be determined at that time.

What Mitchell’s Return Means

Having Mitchell back could give the Jets more flexibility in their passing attack. However, his individual performance and the impact of his return will become clearer once the game is played.
