The Cincinnati Bengals lost running back Joe Mixon to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday due to a foot injury
Mixon left the game in the first half and met coaches on the touchline while Giovani Bernard took over as the main full-back The team did not take long to announce that he was doubtful to return
Mixon had rushed for a touchdown as part of the sprint for a 24-7 first-half lead and had 11 races under his belt before suffering the setback
The Bengals had just two other active full-backs for Sunday’s game, but Samaje Perine and Bernard were more than capable of carrying the load If Mixon misses time beyond this week it would mean a load of work most important for Trayveon Williams at one of the highlights of the list on the depth chart
We’ll be providing more as the game unfolds, especially with the Mixon tag which means 50-50 chances to come back – for now
