Joe Mixon Plunges Into End Zone Twice In Win

Tuesday, December 5, 12:58 AM

Cincinnati Bengals running Joe Mixon topped 100 scrimmage yards in Week 13's 34-31 upset win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, carrying the ball 19 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns with a season-high six catches plus 49 yards. Besides a 28-yard screen catch, Mixon curiously lost five first-quarter touches to change-of-pace back Chase Brown but took over the backfield work afterward for a huge fantasy showing. The 27-year-old former Pro Bowler made a great effort to power his way into the end zone for a six yard-score early in the second period before punching it in from two yards out on his second score right before halftime. Mixon has quietly acted as one of fantasy's safest plays at the position in 2023, and he will be back in play as a high-floor RB2 against an Indianapolis Colts defense that's given way for back-to-back 100-yard rushing days to Rachaad White and Derrick Henry.

Saquon Barkley Held In Check Against New England

Sunday, November 26, 7:56 PM

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley barely topped 50 total yards in the team's 10-7 victory over the New England Patriots in Week 12. New York's offensive star received 12 carries for 46 yards and caught one pass for 6 yards. Barkley's 13 touches were his fewest of the 2023 season. There was not a lot of offensive production to go around on either side of this matchup. The Giants totaled just 220 yards. Barkley will remain an RB1 when the Giants host the Green Bay Packers following their bye week.
