Mullins continued his dual status to senior level and was part of the Carlow senior hurling team that won the All-Ireland SBHC title in 1992. He also earned selection to the Leinster Railway Cup team that year.
Mullins declared for the Cork senior hurling team in 1993 and spent four years with the team, including one season as captain in 1996. Mullins ended his inter-county career back with Carlow.
