If they actually see Geathers as the future SS and nickel LB, then yeah, once they feel confident he is fully healthy they'll probably move him back to starter. Mitchell has done well so they'll take their time there. And he'll still get plenty of snaps.

But that's if they see Geathers that way. I don't think they necessarily do. I'm sure there is concern about his long-term viability.

They started the season with Geathers likely to return, and Farley playing well enough to start and then be the primary backup and 3rd safety, so I don't think they had much reason to sign a guy like Mitchell.
