Joe Mixon has been promoted to team captain for the Houston Texans after Stefon Diggs’ season-ending ACL injury.
The Texans have named the Pro Bowl running back as a team captain for the rest of the season. Mixon takes over the position from Stefon Diggs, who sustained a season-ending ACL tear in Week 8 against the Indianapolis Colts.
Honored and humbled to be named captain mid-season for the Texans. It’s a testament to the hard work we all put in together. As General Patton said, ‘Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.’ The mission is clear: victory. Let’s get it. 🤘On the field, Mixon has been a model of consistency. Since coming back from an ankle injury in Week 2, he’s surpassed 100 rushing yards in each game and scored at least one touchdown.
