Joe Mixon (calf) added to Bengals' injury list

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon was limited at Thursday's practice with a calf issue.

What It Means:

It's not clear if Mixon suffered the injury at practice or if the Bengals are just managing his reps. Giovani Bernard would be in line for three-down work if Mixon is unable to play Week 16 against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Mixon has rushed for at least 135 yards and cleared 150 scrimmage yards in back-to-back weeks. The Dolphins are allowing the second-most rushing yards per game this season (140.9).

Mixon is the RB8 in numberFire's Week 16 fantasy rankings. He's projected for 15.7 FanDuel points against the Dolphins, at a cost of $7,800, per our models.
