Joe Mixon (chest) upgraded Thursday for Bengals

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (chest) practiced in full on Thursday for Week 9 against the Buffalo Bills.

What It Means:

Mixon was listed as limited on Wednesday. It was the first time he had been listed as less than a full participant all season, but there isn't any concern about Mixon's status for Sunday night. The 27-year-old rushed 16 times for a season-high 87 yards last week and scored his second touchdown of the season. He also caught 3 passes (3 targets) for 27 yards. Mixon should see a similar workload when the Bengals host the Bills on Sunday.

Mixon is the RB10 in numberFire's Week 9 rankings and our models project him for 13.3 FanDuel points, with 17.1 carries, 70.3 rushing yards, 2.5 receptions, and 18.3 receiving yards. The Bills are ranked 21st in FanDuel points allowed per game to running backs, but their run defense is 13th in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP rankings.
