Fantasy football, Week 7: Joe Mixon, start or sit?

The Cincinnati Bengals and star rookie Joe Mixon will look to continue their resurgence when they face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 7.

After the Bengals got off to a dreadful start to the season, they’ve won two of their last three games thanks in large part to Mixon getting the ball more. The rookie running back has impressed with his vision, patience, and burst through the offensive line, which has struggled to open up holes for anyone.

Even so, Mixon has shown he can be a threat between the tackles and as a pass-catcher. He is now set to face a Steelers defense that has proved vulnerable in recent weeks.

Fantasy advice: The Steelers have been hit and miss on the ground this year, allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to running backs, as well as the eighth-most receptions to running backs. Keep Mixon in your starting lineup in Week 7.
