2023 Outlook
Depth Chart
After a brutally inefficient season last year, and an offseason marred with off the field issues, finances and lack of veteran depth are likely the only things keeping Mixon on this roster. While the terrible o-line play does factor in, Mixon was one of the least elusive runners in the NFL, rarely carving out his own yards. His 29 carries inside the ten resulted in only six rushing touchdowns, and only four of his whopping 210 carries went for 20 yards or more. What's worse than the final numbers is the fact former teammate Samaje Perine often was the preferred back in certain situations, especially when it mattered most in the AFC title game. The Bengals replaced Perine with only 5th round pick Chase Brown who offers versatility, and great college production, but will have to dazzle in the preseason to challenge Mixon's touch monopoly. That is, if Mixon is even on the team. Rumors have swirled all offseason about reducing his salary, and the market for backs has taken a tumble. Outside of 2021, Mixon just hasn't produced up to his pay, and remains a cut candidate. Not exactly a ringing real life or fantasy endorsement. Even if he remains on the roster, and retains a stranglehold on touches, I've seen enough to avoid Mixon's limited ceiling.

Bengals, Mixon agree on restructured contract
RB sticks in Cincinnati at a reduced salary
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Jul 14, 7:55 pm

Cincinnati Bengals
The #Bengals and RB Joe Mixon are finalizing a restructured contract that will keep him in Cincinnati for the 2023 season, per sources. Mixon was due $10.1 million this season with a $12.791M cap number. The new deal frees up cash and cap for Cincinnati, and Mixon stays as RB1. (Tom Pelissero on Twitter)

FFToday's Take: The Bengals were looking to adjust Mixon's contract and the possibility of a release was a real thing. In the end, Mixon agreed to a lower salary while saving the team some $ under the cap. Despite a subpar 2022 season, Mixon is likely to lead the team in running back touches and has been slightly undervalued in early-season best ball drafts.
