HENDERSON, Nev.– The Las Vegas Raiders claimed LB Jackson Mitchell via waivers, the club announced Saturday.

Mitchell was originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Carolina Panthers out of UConn in May. He was released by the Panthers on Friday.

A native of Ridgefield, Conn., Mitchell led UConn in tackles as a senior, racking up 113 total stops, averaging 9.4 tackles per game, the 19th-most in FBS. He also finished with seven tackles for loss, one sack, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and one interception. He posted five games with double digit tackles. He finished his career ranked third on UConn's all-time list with 438 total tackles in four seasons.

Mitchell earned All-New England honors for the third-straight season last year and was invited to both the Hula Bowl and the East-East Shrine Bowl.
