Mitchell Bryan Schwartz (born June 8, 1989) is an American football offensive tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL) and author.

Schwartz played college football at the University of California, Berkeley's Golden Bears. He started all 51 games possible from 2008–11, at either left tackle or right tackle. He was named second-team All-Pac-10 as a junior, and first-team All-Pac-12 and Pac-12 All-Academic as a senior. He also earned honorable mention Pac-10 All-Academic (2008–10), and the Brick Muller Award as Cal's Most Valuable Offensive Lineman (2009–11), for three seasons each.

Schwartz was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the second round (37th overall) of the 2012 NFL draft. He has started over 100 consecutive games and has over 7,000 consecutive snaps (which makes him the active iron man leader in the snaps category). Schwartz was named to the Pro Football Focus (PFF) 2012 All-Rookie Team, lauded for his "top-notch pass blocking", and to the 2014 PFF All-Third Year Team. Following the 2018 season, he was named the winner of Pro Football Focus' Matthews Award, given out by the organization to their highest-rated offensive lineman each year.
