Joe Mixon (foot) still not practicing with Bengals
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon was not seen at Thursday's practice.
What It Means:
Mixon appears headed for a second consecutive absence in Week 8 when the Bengals play the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. The Bengals are on bye next week, so Mixon may not be back on the field until Week 10. Giovani Bernard rushed 13 times for 37 yards and caught 5 passes (5 targets) for 71 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals' Week 7 loss to the Cleveland Browns.
Bernard scored 18.1 FanDuel points in Week 7 as the Bengals' lead back. He ranks 30th and Mixon ranks 57th in Rushing Net Expected Points per carry out of 68 backs with at least 25 carries this season. The Titans have the fourth-worst rushing defense in numberFire's advanced team rankings.
