The Cincinnati Bengals have traded running back Joe Mixon to the Houston Texans, a move that came as a surprise to many. Originally, there were plans to release Mixon, but the Bengals found a trade partner in the Texans instead, as reported by @RapSheet. This decision aligns with Houston's active search in the running back market, having previously shown interest in other notable players. The trade signifies a notable shift for Mixon, transitioning from the Bengals, where he played alongside quarterback Joe Burrow, to a new start in Houston with quarterback CJ Stroud. The Bengals' acquisition of Zack Moss is also part of these team changes. The trade has been confirmed by multiple sources and has sparked considerable interest in the NFL community.
