Joe Mixon turns 29 this summer but continues playing at a high level. An injury kept him out of three of Houston's first five games. But upon his return to the lineup in Week 6, he scored 10 total TDs over the next six games. The RB2 price that fantasy managers paid in 2024 was paying off. But he finished the season with a dud as the entire offense cratered to an anemic level, scoring only once the rest of the season.
Once again, Mixon enters draft season as an RB2. It's a lot to ask of a 29-year-old RB to continue playing at a consistently high level. Personally, I'm not a fan of relying on RBs at that age, especially having to use a premium draft pick to get them. And as mentioned above, the Texans have a leaky O-line that's ranked in the bottom-third of the league. Now throw in the fact that the team signed RB Nick Chubb, who is also 29 years old, and you have the makings of a season that falls short of expectations for Mixon. His production history says yes, draft him. But his age and other conditions beyond his control say let someone else draft him. Either way, you should have guarded optimism when it comes to Joe Mixon.

 Joe Mixon headed to NFI list
RB to miss at least first four games with ankle issue
By: Doug Orth | Tue Aug 26, 9:30 pm
|  | Texans are not activating RB Joe Mixon by Tuesday’s 4 pm ET deadline, making him ineligible to play at least the first four games this season due to an ankle injury.
Mixon will be moved to Reserve/Non-Football Injury, which automatically rules him out for at least four games. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: By all accounts, Mixon did not participate in OTAs or has not practiced at all since the team reported to training camp. At this point, it would be shocking if he is ready to practice - much less play - by Week 5. Fantasy managers should not expect Mixon to contribute in a meaningful way until at least Week 8 - especially considering he has likely done little more than take mental reps in new OC Nick Caley's offense. Nick Chubb and Dameon Pierce - assuming the latter is not cut on Tuesday - is expected to handle most of the early-down work, while rookie Woody Marks should take most of the work in the passing game.
| Joe Mixon dealing with frustrating foot injury
Out an extended period of time
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Jul 26, 1:36 pm
| | #Texans RB Joe Mixon, who is on the non-football injury list, is expected to be out an extended period of time with a frustrating foot injury, sources say.
The Pro Bowler coming off a 1,000-yard season will be reevaluated closer to the season to determine his availability. (Ian Rapoport on X)
FFToday's Take: Not great. Mixon has handled 285 and 309 touches in each of the last two seasons. Being injured before we even get to Week 1 is an ominous sign. He's ADP will be falling in short order. Nick Chubb Woody Marks, and Dameon Pierce are next up on the depth chart. Chubb comes with his own injury history but has been working as the No.1 back thus far in training camp.
| Joe Mixon on NFI list to start training camp
In a boot this Spring
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Jul 23, 10:17 am
| | Texans placed RB Joe Mixon on the Non-Football Injury list. Mixon was in a boot throughout the spring, but he is expected to be OK fairly soon. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: It's not ideal to have Mixon missing the start of training camp with a relatively unknown injury, but it sounds like he should be back at camp soon. The Texans also have Nick Chubb, Woody Marks and Dameon Pierce on the roster.
| Nick Chubb signs one-year deal with Houston
Maximum value of $5 million
By: Mike Krueger | Mon Jun 9, 6:06 pm
| | #Texans deal for four-time Pro Bowl running back Nick Chubb has maximum value of $5 million, per a league source @KPRC2. Passed physical and good to go for defending AFC South champions (Aaron Wilson on X)
FFToday's Take: The deal is said to be for $2.5 million with a max of $5 million. Chubb will be insurance in case starter Joe Mixon goes down with an injury. Chubb has dealt with serious injuries each of the last two seasons and doesn't hold much fantasy value unless Mixon were to miss significant time.
