Bengals general manager Duke Tobin made it clear that star wide receiver part of the ' plans. Tobin did not make such a surances regarding , however, as the former Pro Bowl running back could join the list of accomplished tailbacks who may soon be available.Tobin quoted a character from "The Office" when asked about Mixon's future with the team."I'm not going to predict the offseason because I don't have the answers," Tobin said, . "In the words of the great Kevin Miami Marlins T-Shirts Malone, 'I don't know.'"Mixon has two years remaining on a $48 million extension he signed in 2020. He is projected to have a cap hit of $12,761,754 million for the upcoming season. It seems likely, though, that Mixon would restructure his contract before next season should he remain with the team. While the Bengals have plenty of cap space (Cincinnati is currently sixth in the in that area), they have several pre sing contracts to addre s. The team is expected to extend contract this offseason. Receivers Higgins and are also in Wei-Yin Chen Jersey line to receive extensions.A second-round pick in the 2017 , Mixon has been an integral part of the Bengals' recent succe s. He was named to his first Pro Bowl in 2021 after setting career highs with 1,205 rushing yards and 13 touchdown runs.

In seven playoff games, he has gained 582 all-purpose yards. Mixon, who had 72 yards on 15 carries in XVI, ran for 105 yards and a touchdown in January's divisional round playoff win over the . CIN RB #28 Att210Yds814TD7FL0 Given his past succe s, along with the fact he is still only 26 years old, the Bengals would probably like to keep Mixon in the fold. But, as Tobin stre sed Tuesday from the NFL combine, changes will have to be made for the Bengals to be able to retain the most valuable a sets."Joe has been a good player for us. He's been a pretty key component for what we're doing," Tobin Miami Marlins Hoodie said. "I can't predict what the offseason will do," Tobin said. "I can't predict what other deals will get done or how much money we'll need. There might be a chance to renegotiate some people on our team. There might be a chance to extend some people on our team."Again, there's a lot of moving pieces to this. I think the blanket statement I can make is when you have a good player who is productive, you do what you can to keep them on your football team." If he released, Mixon would join , and as the top running backs slated Jose Fernandez Jersey to be available in free agency. may also join that list of backs if the decide to release him while freeing up more cap space.
