Joe Mixon scores first NFL touchdown in Week 5

by Jacob Bridges | Texans Correspondent | Mon, Oct 9th 6:56pm EDT

Joe Mixon received 15 carries for 51 yards and a touchdown and wasn't targeted in Sunday's victory over the Bills.

Fantasy Impact:

Mixon was finally able to get into the end zone in Week 5, something fantasy owners have been waiting all season for. He still hasn't put a full game together, but is making strides in every game. It is a little concerning that Mixon wasn't targeted, but that was probably more game script than game plan as A.J. Green was really all the Bengals needed through the air. Mixon is the clear back to own, and you're somehow still able to buy low do it because after the bye next week the Bengals have a great schedule the rest of the way. Mixon will be an RB2 going forward with high upside.
