Mitch Hyatt

After an All-State junior season, in which he helped pave the way for North’s run to a GHSA Class 6A state runner-up finish, Hyatt verbally committed to Clemson.

Hyatt signed with the Dallas Cowboys as an undrafted free agent on April 30, 2019. He struggled during preseason as a backup left tackle and was released on August 31. He was signed to the practice squad on September 2. He was promoted to the active roster on December 10, 2019.

His uncle, Dan Benish, was an All-ACC defensive tackle and a starter on Clemson’s 1981 National Championship team.

Hyatt became the 13th repeat winner of the award in 2018. Hyatt also became the Tigers' all time leader in snaps from scrimmage during the 2018 Louisville game.

Hyatt was part of the Clemson team that defeated Alabama in the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship by a score of 35–31. In 2017, Hyatt was named as the recipient of the Jacobs Blocking Trophy for the ACC's most outstanding blocker. Hyatt was the 8th Clemson lineman to receive this award, and the first since 1987.

Listed first team on the depth chart entering August camp in 2015, Hyatt was scheduled to become the first freshman since Barry Richardson in 2004 to start on the offensive line for Clemson. He started the season opener against Wofford at left tackle, the first true-freshman to do so for the Tigers since Phil Prince in 1944.

In Hyatt's sophomore year, North Gwinnett faced defending state champion Grayson in the second round of the GHSA Class 6A playoffs, upsetting them 28–10, as Hyatt reportedly played Grayson's blue chip defensive end Robert Nkemdiche “to a draw.”

Mitch Hyatt (born February 6, 1997) is an American football offensive tackle for the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Clemson.
