Mitchell January brings big-play juice to Drake’s passing game
In the 2024 season, Mitchell January was Drake’s third-leading receiver with 42 catches for 520 yards and 2 touchdowns, adding a 121-yard breakout against San Diego and a 36-yard TD in that upset win.[4][11] In 2023, he led the Bulldogs with 20 receptions for 444 yards and 4 touchdowns, and his career 15.4 yards per catch shows a legit downfield threat.[4][7] At 6-foot-0 to 6-foot-1 and around 190-200 pounds, he profiles as a reliable vertical playmaker who can tilt coverage and give an offense instant chunk-yardage upside.[2][10][13]
