Overview
- Reports said Mixon traveled to Seattle for a workout that was first reported Sunday so the Seahawks could evaluate him as emergency depth.
- Seattle turned to outside options after rookie Jadarian Price was placed on injured reserve and Zach Charbonnet remained unavailable while rehabbing an ACL.
- Mixon missed the entire 2025 season with a foot injury, was released by the Texans with a non-football injury designation, and has not played since Jan. 18, 2025.
- He is a two-time Pro Bowler with five 1,000-yard seasons and career totals that include more than 7,400 rushing yards, which makes him a proven option if his health checks out.
- If the workout shows Mixon is ready the Seahawks could sign him to the practice squad or a short, low-cost deal as temporary insurance until Charbonnet returns, but medical uncertainty remains about his ability to handle an NFL workload.
