This depends on what you mean by FG range. The Bengals got to the Chiefs 32 yard line very quickly which is well within Evan's range. Mixon had two carries for six yards to help get there. Then Mixon broke off a seven yard run and a 13 yard run. That got them to the 12 for a chip shot.
Did Mixon do much to get them into FG range? Not really. Barely. Did Mixon make that FG a chip shot? Yes. The Bengals started at their own 45, so they didn't have far to go.
