Bengals RB Joe Mixon already working on the rehab field When Joe Mixon had arthroscopic knee surgery A.J. Green Jersey , the belief was he would be sidelined for 2-4 weeks.But earlier this week, Mixon said he felt great and his return to game action would ultimately be his call.Based on what happened Friday, that could be sooner rather than later, as Mixon was able to get in a nice workout on the rehad field: When a player is recovering from injury, they usually spend several days of practice on the rehab field before returning to action, depending on the severity of the injury.

If this surgery ultimately costs Mixon just two games Michael Jordan Cincinnati Bengals Jersey , then it will be a huge win for him and the Bengals, all things considered.

The AFC’s leading rusher last season Michael Jordan Jersey 2019 , Mixon was one of the top players snubbed of a Pro Bowl appearance. Adding fuel to the fire, Mixon is set for yet another breakout season in 2019. That being said, NFL.com contributor and former Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew recently ranked each team’s starting running back. Mixon, the Bengals main option in the backfield, came in at No. 8.Here’s what the former three-time Pro Bowler had to say about Mixon, who will be entering his third professional season in 2019.“Mixon racked up nearly 1,500 scrimmage yards and nine touchdowns in 2018 Color Rush Michael Jordan Jersey , but a lot of folks didn’t hear about it, because the Bengals struggled in the second half. I’ve been high on Mixon’s on-field ability since he was drafted, and he’s just scratching the surface entering Year 3. A former student of offensive guru Sean McVay, first-year Bengals head coach Zac Taylor should have a positive impact on this offense, and especially on Mixon, whose versatility could bring the offense to new heights in 2019.”Jones-Drew is spot on with this. Mixon has been widely underrated because of the success of the Bengals over the past few seasons. In Mixon’s time in the league, the Bengals have gone just 13-19 Cheap Michael Jordan Jersey , and traditionally backs on underperforming teams don’t necessarily get the credibility they deserve.With four hundred-yard games last season, Mixon put up a phenomenal 4.93 yards per carry average.

All-in-all, expect a huge season from the star back in 2019.
