Joe Mixon News
Tuesday, March 24, 9:09 PM
Free-agent running back Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) remains unsigned deep into March. The Texans recently released Mixon after one of the most confusing seasons in recent memory. Mixon's timetable for returning from an undisclosed injury kept getting pushed back, and the team never provided any clarity on why he wasn't able to play. Ultimately, the veteran running back finished the season with zero snaps, making his 2025 season certainly one to forget. Being released is never ideal, but this could be a blessing in disguise for Mixon if he signs elsewhere and contributes in the backfield. After all, he's less than two years removed from an elite 2024 campaign in which he posted 1,325 scrimmage yards and 12 touchdowns. Even partially returning to that form would get Mixon back on the fantasy radar as an RB3/flex or higher. However, his fantasy outlook is somewhat meaningless as long as he's a free agent.

Tyler Allgeier News
Monday, March 9, 9:55 AM
The Arizona Cardinals agreed to terms on a two-year, $12.25 million deal with former Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier on Monday, according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Allgeier had a career-low 514 rushing yards on 143 rushing attempts in 2025 in his final year in Atlanta, but he still managed to score a career-high eight rushing touchdowns. The 25-year-old added 14 receptions for 96 additional yards as the backup to superstar back Bijan Robinson. The former fifth-rounder in 2022 out of BYU will now head to the desert to give the Cardinals more backfield depth with both James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee) coming off season-ending injuries a year ago. It's not the best landing spot for fantasy football purposes for Allgeier, but he should at least be a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex option while being paired with Conner in a rebuilding Cardinals offense. The addition of Allgeier is certainly bad news for Benson's dynasty stock.
