Bengals News: Joe Mixon, 2023 Senior Bowl, and more
In Bengals news, Joe Mixon had a warrant out for his arrest but the charges were dismissed on Friday. Also in Bengals news, the Senior Bowl is on Saturday!
Mixon was already a potential cap casualty this offseason and even with the charges dropped, this doesn't help Mixon's case when it comes to being on the Bengals roster in 2023. Cincinnati can save roughly $7 million if they cut Mixon before the June 1 deadline.
The Senior Bowl pits the top college football players against each other in a game that allows NFL teams to see these guys in action against better talent. Some current Bengals who have participated in the game before are Germaine Pratt (2019) and Drew Sample (2019).
