In January 2014, he committed to the University of Oklahoma to play college football. He had 47 offers, and ultimately chose Oklahoma over Alabama, California, Wisconsin, and UCLA.[5][6]

College career

[edit]

Mixon attended and played college football for the University of Oklahoma from 2014 to 2016.[7] He was suspended from the Oklahoma football team for the 2014 season after a misdemeanor assault charge in October 2014.

In 2015, Mixon earned playing time his redshirt freshman year, playing in all 12 games with three starts. In his first career game, Mixon had a 76-yard touchdown reception, the longest catch ever by a Sooner freshman running back. In addition, he ran for 27 yards on five carries against Akron.[8] On October 24, against Texas Tech, he had 154 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns.[9] In the annual rivalry game against Oklahoma State, he had 136 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns.[10] Oklahoma qualified for the College Football Playoff in the 2015 season. In the semifinals against Clemson in the Orange Bowl, he was limited to four rushing yards and 11 receiving yards in the loss.[11] During the 2015 regular season, he ran for 749 yards on 110 carries, averaging 6.8 yards. He rushed for seven touchdowns and set his career long carry at 66 yards. He also recorded 25 receptions for 345 yards, averaging 13.8 yards per reception, and four touchdowns.[12][13][14]

Professional career

Pre-draft

[edit]

Coming out of college, some analysts and scouts graded Mixon as a first-round talent but projected him to be selected in the third or fourth round due to his prior history.[25] He was ranked the fifth-best running back by NFLDraftScout.com, the fourth-best by Sports Illustrated, and the third-best back by Pro Football Focus.[26][27] Although he was a talented prospect, the NFL declined to invite him to the NFL Scouting Combine. ESPN reported that on the weekend of the combine the Cincinnati Bengals met with Mixon in order for them to get a chance to talk with him extensively about his character. On March 8, 2017, Mixon performed all of the combine tests and completed the positional workouts at Oklahoma's Pro Day.[28]

Mixon was drafted by the Bengals in the second round (48th overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft.[31] He was the fourth running back to be selected in that year's draft.[32] He was viewed as a first-round talent by some scouts, but several teams removed him from their draft board entirely due to character concerns after a prior assault on Amelia Molitor, a female student at Oklahoma. New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said, "While I believe in second chances and giving players an opportunity for redemption, I also believe that playing in the NFL is a privilege, not a right. For me, personally, I believe that privilege is lost for men who have a history of abusing women."[33] After Mixon was drafted, ESPN writer Dan Graziano wrote that, "No 2017 draft pick enters the league under more intense scrutiny or controversy."[34] The editorial board of Cincinnati TV station WCPO criticized the draft pick and called for a boycott of the Bengals, writing, "Instead of buying a Bengals ticket this year, take the $50 or more you would have spent on that ticket and donate the money to a nonprofit that works to prevent violence against women."[35][36] On June 2, 2017, the Bengals signed Mixon to a four-year, $5.45 million contract with $2.81 million guaranteed and a signing bonus of $2.10 million.[37]

On September 10, 2017, Mixon made his NFL debut in a 20–0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He had eight rushes for nine yards and three receptions for 15 yards.[38] In Week 3, against the Green Bay Packers, his role in the offense expanded with 18 carries for 62 yards.[39] In Week 5, against the Buffalo Bills, he recorded his first career rushing touchdown, a five-yard rush in the fourth quarter.[40] In Week 8, against the Indianapolis Colts, he recorded over 100 scrimmage yards (18 rushing and 91 receiving) for the first time in his career, 67 of them coming on a long run-after-catch play in the second quarter.[41] After three disappointing weeks of 31 rushing yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars,[42] 37 rushing yards against the Tennessee Titans,[43] and 49 rushing yards against the Denver Broncos,[44] averaging just 2.79 yards per carry over the time span but recording two touchdowns, Mixon led the NFL in Week 12 with a career-best 114 rushing yards against the Cleveland Browns, along with a touchdown and 51 yards receiving.[45] Mixon closed out his rookie season with 96 rushing yards against the Ravens in the 31–27 victory.[46] Overall, in his rookie season, Mixon finished with 626 rushing yards, 4 rushing touchdowns, 30 receptions, and 287 receiving yards.[47]

2014 misdemeanor assault charge

[edit]

Mixon entered an Alford plea to a misdemeanor assault charge in October 2014 for punching Amelia Molitor, breaking bones in her face and resulting in hospitalization and surgery. The incident happened on July 25, 2014, in Norman, Oklahoma.[95]

Some of his teammates were harassing Molitor and her friend outside a store. The surveillance video shows Mixon follow Molitor inside the store and the two begin arguing, followed by Molitor pushing and slapping Mixon's face, and then Mixon punching Molitor, causing her to fall into a table. Molitor required surgery after the incident, as the punch and resulting fall had broken four bones in her face. According to Molitor, the incident was escalated when Mixon used a homophobic slur towards her friend after Mixon followed them into the store. Mixon claimed that Molitor's friend had directed a racial slur at him and that he responded with a homophobic slur at the friend.[96]

Mixon received a one-year deferred sentence and was ordered to undergo counseling along with 100 hours of community service. Molitor filed suit in federal court against Mixon on July 22, 2016, accusing Mixon of negligence, wilful and wanton misconduct, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.[97] A settlement in the case was reached, and Mixon apologized to Molitor on April 21, 2017.

2023 alleged aggravated menacing incident

[edit]

A warrant was issued for Mixon's arrest for one count of Aggravated Menacing on February 2, 2023. It was alleged that Mixon pointed a gun at a woman in downtown Cincinnati, according to local reports. Mixon allegedly said: "You should be popped in the face. I should shoot you now. The police can't get me." The alleged incident was said to have happened one day before the Bengals faced the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional playoff game.[98] On February 3, 2023, less than 24 hours after the warrant was issued the aggravated menacing charge against Mixon was dismissed, per the request of The Hamilton County Prosecutor's Office. According to WCPO-TV, a prosecutor told county judge Curt Kissinger, "We need additional investigation before we would move forward with this case." Authorities reserved the right to refile the charge at a later date if needed.[99] On April 7, 2023, the Cincinnati Police Department publicly announced the criminal charge against Mixon had been refiled.[100] On August 17, 2023, Mixon was found not guilty and acquitted of the charges following a four-day trial in Hamilton County Municipal Court.[101]

2023 injured child incident

[edit]

On March 6, 2023, the Hamilton County sheriff department responded to a "shots fired" call at Mixon's home.[102] An injured child was found on the scene and transported to Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries.[103] Mixon was not arrested, but the investigation into the incident is ongoing. On March 16, 2023, Hamilton County prosecutors charged Mixon's sister and her boyfriend in the case. However, Mixon was not charged as the prosecutor said, "He did not commit a crime."[104]
