Bengals running back Joe Mixon will not practice Wednesday after injuring his foot in Week 6.

Mixon was able to return to the game in Week 6 after leaving in the first half with a foot issue. That would seem to indicate that the injury was not serious, although Mixon not practicing at all on Wednesday is not a good sign. The Bengals have not provided much detail about Mixon's foot, meaning it is hard to gauge his Week 8 status at the moment. Check back Thursday for an update on his practice status. Giovani Bernard would see a large usage boost if Mixon is ruled out.

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said RB Joe Mixon is good to go Sunday, according to Jay Morrison of The Athletic.

Mixon is tough to bench in Week 6 due to byes and a lack of workhorse backs, but his matchup against the Colts will be one of the toughest for a running back this week. Mixon is an RB2 this week.

The Cincinnati Bengals and running back Joe Mixon agreed Tuesday to a four-year contract extension, according to The Enquirer's Tyler Dragon.

Owners and potential owners can breathe a sign of relief. We've had several questions on our Discuss Your Team forum about Mixon and how safe he is to draft this year with signs of a possible holdout. Mixon, 24, rushed for 1,137 yards in 16 games last season after rushing for 1,168 in 14 games the previous season. He's entering his fourth season with the team. However, one thing to pay attention to is Mixon is now dealing with migraines.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon was not seen at Friday's practice, according to Tyler Dragon of the Cincinnati Enquirer. The Bengals said Mixon is absent because of a "minor injury."

Mixon is falling down draft boards because of his multiple absences. The alarm bells were already rung at a low volume, but those alarms are getting louder. His backups - Giovani Bernard and Trayveon Williams - are essentially free in drafts.

According to Tom Pelissero, Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has not practiced all week due to migraines.

There is no word on the nature or severity of the injury, but the minor tag should temper some concerns. However, there is some speculation that in the new CBA landscape that a holdout may now take the form of a player nursing soft tissue damage injuries, or other ailments that cannot be detected by medical instruments. With that being said, migraines can be extremely painful and caused former Pro Bowl receiver Percy Harvin to miss multiple practices and even games throughout his career. Joe Mixon wants a new contract, but will probably need to deliver the type of season fantasy gamers have been hoping for in order to earn the payday his talent dictates he deserves. 2020 should be the year his production finally catches up to his top five level talent. Joe Mixon is our seventh ranked running back for the 2020 season.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon is not practicing on Wednesday due to a "minor injury."

Mixon sat out practice on Monday for the same reason. The Bengals are apparently attributing Mixon's absence to a "minor injury," although him missing practice inevitably leads to speculation about a possible holdout given that Mixon is entering the final year of his rookie contract. There has been no firm indication that Mixon is going to hold out to this point, and it is possible the Bengals are simply resting their feature back for the regular season. Continue to draft Mixon as a low-end RB1 until we hear something more serious is afflicting him.

Bengals director of player personnel Duke Tobin said Monday he wants RB Joe Mixon in a black and orange uniform long term. Tobin views Mixon as a cornerstone piece to the franchise.

Mixon is looking for his third-straight 1,000-yard season in 2020. The running back is in the final year of his rookie contract. He’s set to earn $1.2 million in base salary this season.
