Please stop making stuff up. This is embarrassing. Mixon played plenty of third downs last year. The RB rotation was often for a full series instead of just on third downs.
Last year in the first 6 games when Mixon was healthy he had more combined carries and targets (12) on third down than Gio did (10). And Gio had twice as many targets + carries on first and second down (22) than he did on third down.
That being said, it is true that Gio came in on some third downs to replace Mixon. But that is what happens on almost every team in the NFL.
