? After posing for a photoshoot, Mitchell and his teammates joined Levi's in support of breast, colon and pediatric cancer warriors at the Crucial Catch Fashion Show presented by Dignity Health on October 2, 2018. 49ers players and cancer warriors took to the runway to show off their attire and share their stories of strength and courage with the audience.

? During all Week 13 games in 2017, NFL players had the chance to share the causes that are important to them as part of the NFL's My Cause, My Cleats campaign. "The Salvation Army is my favorite nonprofit because they provide resources to single mothers and help them get on their feet during times of need," said Mitchell.

? The 49ers joined forces with Martha's Kitchen of San Jose as part of their Community Tuesday kickoff event on September 11, 2018. Mitchell and teammates took part in the event by serving dinner to nearly 200 residents in need, refilling beverages and bussing tables. Both the 49ers and Levi's Stadium partner with Martha's Kitchen throughout the year by donating excess food after stadium events. Martha's Kitchen's mission is to "feed the hungry with dignity, no questions asked, no judgements made."

? In 2013, Mitchell added CrossFit to his workout repertoire three times a week to help with his endurance. "It's just something I picked up during the offseason," Mitchell said in 2013. "I was kind of just looking at different ways to work out and that was right up my alley and what would translate best for me in terms of how I feel during practice and during games. It takes a lot of heart to do CrossFit so that's really why I did it."

? While playing at the University of Arizona, Mitchell transitioned from TE/H-Back to a DL for his final two seasons (2008-09). "I was able to pick up what the other team's offense was doing, and that helped make the transition easier," said Mitchell.
