Bengals won’t have Joe Mixon vs. WFT, five others questionable

The Cincinnati Bengals appear much healthier than a week ago as they head into a Week 11 clash with the Washington Football Team.

But that doesn’t mean they’ll have a star like running back Joe Mixon on the field.

Bengals coaches confirmed the injury report mainstays on Friday:

  • HB Joe Mixon (Out)
  • DL Margus Hunt (Questionable)
  • OL Fred Johnson (Questionable)
  • G Alex Redmond (Questionable)
  • WR Mike Thomas (Questionable)
  • DT Xavier Williams (Questionable)

If nothing else, the Bengals are much healthier along the offensive line as starting offensive tackles return. That means new arrival Quinton Spain can slide over and man a more natural guard position in front of Joe Burrow.

Breakout rookie wideout Tee Higgins missed Thursday’s practice with an illness but is back and ready to go.
