The seemingly inevitable has happened.
According to multiple reports, the Houston Texans have officially made the decision to cut two-time Pro-Bowl running back Joe Mixon. The move saves the team roughly $8 million in cap space.
Between a lost season in 2025 due to a mystery foot injury, age, financial constraints and a recent trade for Detroit Lions rusher David Montgomery, the decision to part ways with the former 1,000-yard ball carrier was seen as a certainty by local fans and media.
With the decks now cleared, the Texans have a current depth chart that features Montgomery, second-year player Woody Marks, Jawhar Jordan and British Brooks.
More information is soon to follow.
