I only consider a very few Bengals good leaders. It is silly to say I don't like any of the others.
Well, I DO see Mixon as a current leader of this team. And I’m certainly not alone in that belief.
Outside of his play on the field, Mixon is a leader for the Bengals. Even throughout their 2-14 season in 2019, he was always enthusiastic, pushing himself and others not to give up. Mixon’s energy is infectious to both the fans and his teammates around him. Whether it is a close game or a blowout, he always brings the same passion to the game and that rubs off on the players around him. For a team rebuilding, Mixon’s leadership is invaluable.

Pretty much exactly what I was saying up thread. And that writer is even from OSU...see Rascal I don’t hate them.
