What It Means:

Mixon made an early exit when he was concussed in the first half of Week 13's matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and it looks like he's a long-shot to suit up this week. Gio Bernard will handle the Bengals' lead-back role in his absence.

Mixon has had a reasonably efficient rookie campaign so far, and his -0.06 Rushing Net Expected Points (NEP) per carry rank 34th among the 64 back that have at least 50 carries on the year.
