After spending his first three seasons with the Browns, Mingo was traded to the Patriots for a fifth-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. While Mingo served as a fourth outside linebacker on New England’s roster, he did get his opportunity to play in all 16 games in a reserve role.

Mingo appeared in Super Bowl LI, where the Patriots mounted a legendary comeback against the Falcons to win 34-28. Mingo played exclusively on special teams. He recorded two tackles while covering two punt returns.
