He doesn't really fit this offense very well, he's awful in pass protection and he doesn't have speed, creativity or elusiveness. There's no way to justify keeping him on the roster at 12m, IMO. Even if he's willing to do a new deal at a greatly reduced price, I just still don't think he's a good fit at this point.
What Holic said, Mixon just doesn't fit even with a restructured contract even. All our RB's have to be great pass protectors in the Joe
Burrow era and even Mixon leaves a lot to be desired with his poor vision at times and the way he doesn't hit the hole fast in front of
him. There were tons of plays left on the field last season where a RB with better vision and more decisiveness would of turned a small
gain into a TD.
