Quick Summary

Joe Mixon, a two-time Pro Bowl running back who hasn't played since January 2025 due to an unspecified foot injury, is scheduled to meet with the Seattle Seahawks on Monday, according to Fox Sports reporter Jay Glazer. Despite being released by the Houston Texans at his own request in March and earlier reports suggesting he was retiring, Mixon’s career may still be viable as the Seahawks seek a new running back given their current roster injuries.

Story summary

Joe Mixon, a two-time Pro Bowl running back who hasn't played since January 2025 due to a mysterious foot injury, visited the Seattle Seahawks on Monday. According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, Mixon will initially join Seattle's practice squad. The Seahawks are seeking additional help in their backfield after placing rookie Jadarian Price on injured reserve and awaiting Zach Charbonnet's return from ACL surgery. Despite his career-threatening injury last year, Mixon had been productive with over 1,000 rushing yards in five of his first eight NFL seasons split between the Cincinnati Bengals and Houston Texans.
