And while Mixon does have a good amount of receiving yards (already tied for most yards in a season for him), he's only 16th in the league in total yards from scrimmage.
11 RBs are ahead of him, including the following who make (much) less than Mixon APY:
Barkley
Ekeler
Etienne
Jacobs
Stevenson
Pollard
And for those curious, Mixon is actually tied for 4th in the entire league in the number of touches - 199.
So he's getting plenty of opportunities.
Only 2 of those guys are not on rookie contracts. But they're deals do seem like steals comparatively. I would doubt they move on from Mixon. But some kind of restructuring would be good to free up money to go around.
