Joe Mixon’s desire to give back stems from Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch

Still just 21 years of age, and one of the youngest players on the roster, Joe Mixon is building a reputation as a local role model in Cincinnati.

This past weekend, A.J. Green held his annual football camp at Sycamore High School just north of Cincinnati, and invited Mixon to lead the camp on its second and final day on Saturday.

Youth football camps were a big part of Mixon’s upbringing as a young player and embraced the opportunity to act as a leader of one for the first time in his professional career.
