HOUSTON -- Texans running back Joe Mixon will be out a majority of the preseason with an ankle injury and will be re-evaluated closer to the start of the regular season, a source confirmed to ESPN.
NFL Network was first to report the news.
Mixon injured his ankle over the offseason and didn't participate in OTAs or minicamp, which landed him on the non-football injury list to start training camp.
Mixon, who turned 29 on Thursday, rushed for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2024, earning him Pro Bowl honors in his first season for the Texans.
