Mixon had 419 touches in 2021, 359 being rushes. I know he didn’t touch 390 rushes, but this is interesting.
“All players with 390 or more carries, no matter how these carries were split between the regular season and the postseason, averaged a 33 percent drop in total yards, and an 11 percent drop in yards per carry.”
Mixon in 2021 - 359 for 1467 @ 4.08 ypc. According to the stat above, 2022 could have resulted in 968 @ 3.6 (rushing only)
Mixon in 2022 - 977 @ 3.92 (rushing only)
Maybe Mixon was simply over used in 2021 and we paid the price in 2022. Usually the drop off continues, but Mixon is still relatively young and should have the best OL in front of him.
