The Peoples Champ Gets Another Try in the NFL

















Ex-Eagle Freddie Mitchell, Fred-Ex, the Peoples Champ, Mr. 4th & 26, whatever you want to call him has worked out with the Baltimore Ravens according to ProFootballTalk.com.

Mitchell tried out for the Chiefs in 2005 , but couldn't hack it.

Fred-Ex played from 2001-2004 with the Eagles where he caught 90 passes for 1263 yards scoring five touchdowns.

Mitchell's claim to fame was in a 2004 playoff game against the Green Bay Packers when he caught the infamous 4th and 26 pass from Donavon McNabb.

It would be great to see the Peoples Champ back in the NFL. It's a long shot but hopefully Mitchell makes the Ravens roster. The Birds pay the Ravens a visit on November 23 and I'm sure Brian Dawkins would love to get Freddie Mitchell some Brotherly Love.
