Joe Mixon Officially Ruled Out
4 years agoCincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) has officially been ruled out for Week 10 against the division-rival Steelers. Mixon had initially been listed as doubtful on Friday, so fantasy managers should've already removed him from their starting lineups. The 24-year-old last played against the Colts in Week 6, running the ball 18 times for 54 yards and a touchdown. Giovani Bernard will once again step into the featured role in the backfield with Mixon still out. In the two games with Mixon out, Bernard has 28 carries for 99 yards and a touchdown and has also caught eight passes for 75 yards and two touchdowns. Pittsburgh is a tough matchup for running backs, but Bernard will be on the RB2/3 borderline for his role as the featured back for Cincy this week.
