He took a restructured contract that was more team friendly even if it was to remain on the team. It’s over and the situation resolved. Zac and Duke have spoken. They want him on the team but at a more equitable amount. Mixon has a chance to make 7 million with what I understand are easily obtainable numbers. He could have easily been in Ezekiel and Dalvin Cooks spot and soon others.
I don't recall many fans speculating Mixon would be released with two years remaining on his contract until his most recent legal issues.
Yes, he could have easily been Elliot or Cooks which isn't a great endorsement. He could have been easily replaced by Elliot or Cook, also. Thus the 40% pay cut.

Unless the restructured deal is fully guaranteed he has the exact amount of security as before, just less compensation.
