Joe Mixon was a top six fantasy back over the first 13 weeks in his first season in Houston. The rest of the season he ranked 44th with only 129 yards on 40 carries, with no touchdowns. The team signed Nick Chubb for a reason. Mixon will have good games, but his usage may be limited and a hot hand factor will play into. At his age, its one season at a time as dynasty rankings fall quickly. With an undetermined return from an offseason injury that time may run out quickly.

High-volume usage and a recurring ankle injury with a vague recovery timeline make him a dart throw at best. Managers with IR space can park him there in hopes that he returns to form, or at least to the field, sometime this season.

If you have him on your roster, you are stuck with him.
