In exchange for Mullen, the Cardinals will send a conditional seventh-round draft pick to the Raiders, which could become a sixth-round pick, depending on how much he plays next season. The trade is contingent on Mullen passing a physical.

Mullen was originally a second-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, with the Raiders taking the cornerback No. 40 overall.

After starting all 16 games over his first two seasons with the Raiders, injuries limited Mullen to just five contests in 2021. During his three-year career, he has been credited with 134 tackles and 4 interceptions.

Mullen came to Clemson as a part of the 2016 recruiting class, when he was considered one of the top cornerback prospects in the country. During his three-year career, he accumulated 94 tackles and 4.5 tackles for loss and picked off four passes.
