HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Kansas City Chiefs

The Dolphins kept Joe Mixon in check on the ground but Mixon had a solid receiving day to salvage double-digit points in fantasy. He finished with 56 yards on 17 touches, including five catches for 33 yards. He may be for another tough day Saturday against the league's third-best rushing defense in the Chiefs, who have also only allowed 11 rushing touchdowns. That said, the Texans still are getting the ball in Mixon's hands. His volume alone makes him worth being a low-end RB1 this week.

HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Miami Dolphins

Joe Mixon bounced back from his quiet Week 12 outing with his 7th 100-yard rushing game of the season in Week 13 against the Jaguars. He also made it eight games out of 10 with a touchdown and has 11 rushing touchdowns for the season. Coming off the bye, Mixon gets the Dolphins this week and has a good chance to make it 9/11 games played with a touchdown. Miami has allowed 15 rushing touchdowns in 13 games this season. Mixon helped carry you to the playoffs. No reason to get away now.

HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Jacksonville Jaguars

The Titans stuffed Joe Mixon en route to their upset win in Week 12. Mixon rushed for just 22 yards but did catch five passes for 23 yards. His 45 total yards were his lowest of the season but his five catches were a season high. His touchdown streak came to an end at six games. He'll look to bounce back against the Jaguars, 30th in the league in fantasy points allowed to running backs and have allowed 15 touchdowns to running backs. Mixon should easily remain in lineups.

HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Tennessee Titans

Joe Mixon has been on a tear this season. That's six 100-yard games out of eight for one of the best offseason acquisitions this season. Mixon has also scored in six straight games, including a hat trick last week against the Cowboys. He gets another very nice matchup against the Titans, 17th in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. Mixon is pretty much matchup-proof at this point.

HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Dallas Cowboys

Credit the Detroit Lions for stifling the Texans' run game, namely Joe Mixon. He was held to just 46 yards on 25 carries, by far his lowest output in a full game this season -- he was injured during Houston's Week 2 game. Mixon did score a touchdown for a fifth straight week. He should bounce right back against a Dallas team that is getting consistently hurt by running games, the latest being Saquon Barkley. Mixon remains a "set it and forget it" play.

HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Detroit Lions

Joe Mixon just keeps on rolling. He's now posted 100 rushing yards and a touchdown in four straight games and five out of the six he has finished. Mixon has worked his way into a position where he's nearly matchup-proof, so even with facing a Lions team that is only allowing about 80 rushing yards per game, Mixon has the volume and talent to be plugging into lineups regardless this week. Mixon has averaged over four yards per carry while seeing 24-25 attempts in each of the last three weeks.

HOU RB Joe Mixon - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. New York Jets

Entering Halloween night, Joe Mixon has been very much of a treat for the Houston Texans, rushing for over 100 yards in all four games he has finished this season -- he was injured during the Week 2 game against the Bears. As the workhorse for the Texans, he has a chance almost every week to hit the century mark, just like he will Thursday night against the Jets, who are allowing over 100 yards on the ground. The defense hasn't been as vaunted as previous years. With Stefon Diggs now also out in addition to Nico Collins, Houston will rely even more so on Mixon. Keep rolling with the hot hand this week.
