Joe Mixon Dealing With Migraines
4 years agoUpdating a previous report, Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has been dealing with migraines and hasn't practiced in recent days, according to a source. There is optimism that he'll be back at practice soon. Contract talks with Mixon are ongoing, and some speculated that Mixon's absence on the field was related to a contract holdout. That isn't the case after all, but Mixon should be just fine for Week 1 as the team's starting running back. Some fantasy owners might be down on the 24-year-old just because he's on the Bengals, but Mixon has been quite productive and Cincinnati's offense could be surprisingly effective with rookie QB Joe Mixon running the show now. He remains in the RB1 mix.
