Joe Mixon

Joe Mixon (ankle) was officially “limited” for Thursday’s practice.

It’s the most Mixon has done in two weeks, but we learned the hard way in Week 4 that a few practice reps do not mean Mixon is going to suit up for the first time since Week 1. He is, obviously, presumably closer than he was then, but a “DNP” Wednesday suggests that, at the very least, he still needs to be tightly managed. We would consider Mixon on the wrong side of questionable to face the Pats until proven otherwise.
