Texans fans hoping to see star running back Joe Mixon in preseason action might be disappointed—he's dealing with a nagging ankle injury that'll keep him benched for most of camp. Doctors are taking a closer look before giving the green light for Week 1.

Editor’s Note: Mixon's health is a big deal for Houston's offense. If this ankle issue drags into the regular season, it could throw a wrench into their game plan right out of the gate. Preseason reps matter for shaking off rust, especially for a new addition like Mixon. Fans (and fantasy managers) should keep an eye on those medical reports.
