That’s why, just a few days ago, the Bengals finally reached an agreement with Joe Mixon as the running back accepted to restructure his contract. Before the 2023 season, Mixon had a $9.4 million nonguaranteed base salary producing a headache for the Bengals with a possible $12.8 million hit for the salary cap.

Joe Mixon is found not guilty of aggravated menacing

In a huge day for Joe Mixon, the running back was found not guilty of aggravated menacing. The Bengals’ player was accused by a woman of pulling a gun in her face following a driving incident between them on January 21st. However, there wasn’t enough evidence to prove that threat.

If Mixon had been found guilty, the star might have spent up to a year in jail. This was the verdict by judge Gwen Bender in Hamilton County. “After a careful review of all of the evidence presented at trial, including the stipulations and the testimony presented today, I cannot say the city sustained its burden.”
