6 years agoCincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (knee) is scheduled to have a cleanup procedure on his knee on Saturday, and he is expected to be sidelined for two weeks, according to a source. Mixon is dealing with a small particle in his knee that was dislodged on Thursday night. Cincinnati is set to face Carolina in Week 3 and Atlanta in Week 4 with Mixon sidelined. In his absence, Giovani Bernard should see the majority of work, but rookie Mark Walton, who was inactive on Thursday, could also be mixed in on early downs. Bernard should now be owned in all leagues and will be an RB3/flex play for as long as Mixon is out.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
