Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has a chance to clear concussion protocol this week, per team reporter Marisa Contipelli.

It sounds like there’s a fair chance Mixon could return after missing the previous two games for the Bengals. Surprisingly, Cincinnati may not be quite as adamant about rushing him back based on how Samaje Perine has looked in his place.
