A Legend of the Cincinnati Bengals Found Dead in a Swimming Pool Is A Permanent Setback In Our Hearts.
After seven years with the organization, veteran running back Joe Mixon was released by the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday, capping a move that has been discussed for the past twelve months, according to team sources. Zack Moss, a former running back for the Indianapolis Colts, just inked a contract with the Bengals, which coincided with the relocation.
In terms of overall touchdowns, Mixon is sixth in the franchise’s history, second in carries, and third in running yards.
He negotiated a wage cut before the season to avoid being released, and as a result, he was third in the NFL in terms of rushing attempts last year, carrying the ball 257 times for 1,034 yards and 4 yards per carry. The $3 million roster bonus that was included in the new two-year contract was due on March 17. As a result, the team was forced to decide on his future right away rather than delaying it until the summer.
