Joe Mixon Off Injury Report, Will Play In Week 7
1 month agoHouston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle) has been removed from the injury report and is cleared to play against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. The veteran running back returned from a three-game absence last weekend, so while his appearance on this week's injury report was noteworthy, managers were never overly concerned about his status. Mixon has been special in his two healthy games this season, averaging 130.5 rushing yards, 24.5 receiving yards, and 1.5 touchdowns per contest. Those games were against the Colts and Patriots, which are two easier matchups, and he does face a tougher opponent this week against Green Bay. Still, Mixon has the talent to be a matchup-proof running back in fantasy football. He ranks as a low-end RB1 once again.
