Joe Mixon

Joe Mixon had 25 rushes for 106 yards and a touchdown in the Texans’ Wild Card Round win against the Chargers, adding one catch for 13 yards.

Mixon, along with the rest of the Texans offense, was nowhere to be found in the first half. He was fed the football in the second half after Houston took a multi-score lead against a collapsing Chargers team that committed four turnovers on the day. Mixon grinded his way past the 100-yard rushing mark for the first time since Week 13 after a slow end to the regular season. The game-script sensitive Mixon requires neutral and positive script to get there for fantasy purposes, and that won’t change in the Divisional Round as the Texans likely hit the road against stiffer competition.
