Jason Moore labeled Joe Mixon a "found pick" after noticing the fantasy community overreacting to his late‑season fade. Through Week 11 Mixon was the overall RB1, fueled by 4.2 red‑zone opportunities per game—second only to Kyren Williams. Production cratered once Houston lost Stefon Diggs, Nico Collins and Tank Dell, reducing red‑zone trips, and Mixon battled a high‑ankle sprain down the stretch. None of that changes his 2025 outlook: the Texans already extended Mixon, have no financial incentive to add competition, and project to field a top‑10 offense with their receivers healthy. Moore expects 275‑plus touches and double‑digit TDs, ranking Mixon as a mid‑range RB1 who is currently priced like a back‑end RB2 in both season‑long and best‑ball formats.
