Cleveland Browns and Washington Redskins legend, Hall of Famer Bobby Mitchell has sadly passed away at the age of 84, according to Charean Williams of ProFootballTalk.com.

Mitchell spent 11 seasons in the NFL, four with the Browns and seven with the Redskins. He was drafted back in 1958, in the seventh round, by Cleveland. After four years there, he spent the last seven years of his career in Washington. There he was famously the first African American player in Redskins history.

In those 11 years, Mitchell did it all. He was a returner, a running back and a wide receiver.

As a returner, Mitchell had three punt return touchdowns and five kick return touchdowns.

Meanwhile, he had 521 career receptions for 7,954 yards and 65 touchdowns. At the same time, he had 513 rushes for 2,735 yards and 18 touchdowns.

He truly did it all on the field. And those numbers translated to four Pro Bowls and three All-NFL honors. Obviously, it also led to Mitchell getting the nod for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

After retiring in 1968, Mitchell transitioned to a role in the Redskins front office as an executive. Truly a great football mind.

However, that wasn't where his greatness ended.

Mitchell was well known as a wonderful person. He was often considered a gentleman and was well loved around the whole sports world.

This is a hard loss for a lot of people and something that certainly will be felt around football. We will likely see and hear from a lot of people in the coming days whose lives were touched by Mitchell. This will give everyone another chance to hear of his greatness, both on and off the field.

Condolences to Mitchell's family and friends. This is certainly a hard time for them, as they mourn the loss of a wonderful man.
