Shortly after NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that the Texans were shutting down Mixon for the rest of the season, the Texans running back took to Twitter/X to somewhat dispute the report. He also tagged his agent to seemingly tell him to feed Rapoport correct info.

On Thursday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Mixon is unlikely to play in the 2025-26 season. The Texans running back has been on the reserve/physically unable to perform list since the year began as he works his way back from a foot injury suffered during the offseason.

Texans running back Joe Mixon has spent the entire season, from the start of training camp, on the non-football injury list. He has a foot injury. No one knows what the specific injury is, how it happened, or how long it will keep him out of action. Earlier, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reported that Mixon is not expected to play at all in 2025.

Houston's running back and a two-time Pro Bowl selection is not expected to play this season as he continues to deal with a foot injury sustained this summer, according to a report Thursday from the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Mixon refuted Rapoport's report in subsequent hours.
