Joe Mixon Sits Out Of Practice
3 years agoCincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) was not able to practice on Wednesday. Mixon suffered a low-ankle sprain in last Thursday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, but head coach Zac Taylor is hoping that Mixon can be worked into practice later this week. The 25-year-old might need to get in a full practice before the end of the week in order to be given the green light to play in Week 5 against the Green Bay Packers. If Mixon can't get the clearance, Samaje Perine and rookie Chris Evans would likely split the backfield workload, with Perine expected to see more touches. Perine was a popular waiver-wire pickup this week and would fall into the RB3/flex umbrella if Mixon is inactive.
