Seattle Seahawks Agree To Contract With Veteran Running Back Joe Mixon
Anonymous
The Seattle Seahawks have signed veteran running back Joe Mixon, a 30-year-old two-time Pro Bowl selection, according to NBC Sports. Mixon joins the team after rookie Jadarian Price landed on injured reserve with a chest injury. The move gives Mike Macdonald's offense an experienced backfield option as Seattle pushes toward playoff contention.
Mixon spent the past two seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals and Houston Texans before being released in March Daily Mail. He missed the 2025 season recovering from a foot injury but has now cleared medical evaluations. He is expected to debut against the San Francisco 49ers.
From Bengals Star to Free Agent
Joe Mixon built his NFL resume over eight seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, earning two Pro Bowl selections. He was a centerpiece of Cincinnati's offense during their Super Bowl LVI run. Yahoo Sports notes this signing gives Mixon a fresh start with an NFC contender after his stint with Houston ended abruptly.
Price's Injury Opens Door for Mixon
The Seahawks urgently needed running back depth after Jadarian Price, their rookie prospect, suffered a chest injury that sidelined him for at least four games Gridiron Experts. Seattle moved quickly to bring in proven talent. Mixon's workout came within days of Price hitting injured reserve, giving the team immediate offensive reinforcement.
Veteran Experience for Playoff Push
