Joe Mixon and the Cincinnati Bengals restructured his deal in July.

According to Roster Management System, his new cash value of $5.8 million is nearly a $3 million decrease from his cash value in 2022.

"I see the task at hand and what we're trying to build and in order to keep other players here and pieces here, sometimes you have to sacrifice," Mixon told the team's website in an article published Wednesday. "I felt like this year was the year to sacrifice on the Super Bowl team we can potentially be."
