Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell put the dagger in the Seattle Seahawks with his first career touchdown.
Mitchell took a hand-off from quarterback Lamar Jackson and broke through a couple arm tackle attempts before racing past the rest of the Seattle defense for a 40-yard touchdown run.
It was the first touchdown of Mitchell's career in just his third career game. After starting the season on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury, he missed the first five games of the season before being activated for the game in London against the Tennessee Titans.
He got his first career touch during a blowout win against the Detroit Lions, catching one pass for nine yards.
Now, against the Seahawks, Mitchell has nine carries for 138 yards and a touchdown in what could be a breakout performance for the young running back. He recorded two carries over 40 yards, showing off his explosiveness and game speed on a 60 yard run on the possession after his touchdown.
Mitchell found his way onto the Ravens roster as an undrafted free agent out of East Carolina. While in college, he was one of the most prolific rushers in school history, finishing third all-time in rushing yards with 3,027 and tied for fifth in total touchdowns with 28.
Baltimore ran all over Seattle, putting up 270 yards and three touchdowns between Gus Edwards , Mitchell, Jackson and Justice Hill. The Ravens came into the game as -5.5 point favorites and lead 37-3 halfway through the fourth quarter.
