Did Joe Mixon Get Injured In Week 11 Against The Steelers?
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (head) has been ruled out against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11 with a concussion. He totaled 20 rushing yards and 42 receiving yards before exiting the contest with what appeared to be a head injury in the third quarter.
Joe Mixon Fantasy Football Outlook
With Mixon unable to return, the already-shorthanded Bengals will proceed with Samaje Perine and Trayveon Williams operating out of the backfield against Pittsburgh.
The Bengals' lead back will now enter the NFL's mandatory concussion protocol. He'll be forced to clear all evaluations involved before returning to the field in any capacity.
While Mixon will have a week to clear all levels of the concussion protocol, fantasy managers should consider his status for a Week 12 matchup with the Tennessee Titans in jeopardy. If Mixon is unable to suit up in Week 12, Cincy's veteran RB Samaje Perine would inherit the majority of Mixon's workload.
