Injury Update On Cincinnati Bengals Running Back

The Cincinnati Bengals and their talented offence continue to roll, and with a chance to chase down the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North in 2022 and go on yet another run through the playoffs, this is a team that no one in the NFL wants to play right now.

They've managed to do this without two of their biggest stars in recent times, with both Ja'Marr Chase and Joe Mixon missing time recently, but with Chase back in the Week 13 win over Kansas City, the next step is to get Mixon back, and then this team would really be hard to stop.

Zac Taylor on Joe Mixon (concussion protocol): “There’s a chance he can get cleared here early this week.”

Mixon has been out the past two weeks in the NFL's concussion protocol, but according to Head Coach Zac Taylor, there's a very good chance he'll be back early in the week, and with five more games to go before the playoffs, if the Bengals can get rolling and protect Joe Burrow, there's few teams in the AFC that will be able to stop them.
