According to league sources, Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle), who was sidelined this spring and had a walking boot on his injured ankle, is doing great at the start of training camp. However, KPRC's Aaron Wilson writes that the Texans are likely to ease Mixon into practice and drills in camp this summer. With that said, the 28-year-old's medical outlook entering his second season with the Texans appears to be positive, and he should once again be a key part of the offense in 2025. The 28-year-old ran for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns during the regular season in 2024 despite missing three games due to a high-ankle sprain. Mixon will share a backfield with Nick Chubb and Dameon Pierce in 2025. Nobody should mistake Mixon for an RB1, especially behind Houston's shaky offensive line, but the expected volume alone puts him in RB2 territory in fantasy.

As Cleveland Browns rookie second-round running back Quinshon Judkins' legal situation plays out regarding a domestic-violence incident, the Browns signing him to his rookie deal may not be immediate, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Because he's not signed, the 21-year-old Ohio State product is not at training camp with the rest of the team as they prepare for the 2025 season. Judkins was arrested last week in Florida on domestic-violence charges, and even if he's cleared of the charges, he could be facing a suspension from the league to begin his first NFL season. He should still probably be viewed as Cleveland's lead back of the future, but it just might take a bit more time for him to get there now. As things currently stand, there's no timetable for Judkins to report to camp, boosting the fantasy stock of both Jerome Ford and Dylan Sampson.
