The clock is ticking for the Bengals and Joe Mixon to agree on a contract extension as the 2020 NFL season nears.
In his virtual press conference from Paul Brown Stadium, Bengals director of personnel Duke Tobin was asked about Mixon and his contract situation. In addition to claiming that Mixon is “an important part of our team,” Tobin was asked about how the value of the running back position plays into the negotiations with Mixon.
His response bodes well for an extension to take place in the near future.
