Joe Mixon - Gets maintenance Thursday Mixon (ankle) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice in what may have amounted to a maintenance day, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.
Impact After the ankle injury contributed to Mixon handling his lightest workload of the season in Sunday's overtime loss to the Packers, he opened Week 6 prep as a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. The fact that Mixon took a step back in terms of activity a day later would normally be cause for concern, but his listing as a non-participant Thursday looks as though it may have been a pre-planned arrangement rather than the result of a setback. As Hobson notes, "the way [Mixon] was bouncing around" while working off to the side Thursday points to him getting more of a rest day, which may have had the secondary purpose of opening up more reps with the offense for backups Chris Evans and Trayveon Williams. Neither Evans nor Williams has logged a carry this season, and both will move up a spot on the depth chart Week 6 with Mixon's top understudy, Samaje Perine (illness), expected to miss Sunday's game in Detroit after testing positive for COVID-19.

Joe Mixon - Spectator for practice Mixon (ankle) was spotted off to the side during Thursday's practice and is set to go down as a non-participant, James Rapien of SI.com reports.
Impact Though head coach Zac Taylor said Mixon was moving around well after practicing on a limited basis Wednesday, the running back's inability to join his healthy teammates on the field a day later isn't the most encouraging sign for his availability this weekend in Detroit. While managing the ankle injury ahead of last week's loss to the Packers, Mixon saw a light workload, playing only 18 snaps while getting 11 touches (10 carries, one reception). Fantasy managers may have been hoping Mixon would be ready to handle his normal three-down duties this weekend, but his absence from practice Thursday suddenly leaves his ability to do that in question.

Mike Thomas - Listed as limited participant Thomas (ankle) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.
Impact Thomas sat out Sunday's loss to the Packers due to the ankle issue, but he's back at practice to start this week. The 27-year-old should be able to avoid an injury designation for Week 6 if he can progress to full practice participation Thursday or Friday.

Joe Mixon - Logs limited practice Mixon (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.
Impact Prior to Wednesday's practice, head coach Zac Taylor noted that Mixon's ankle injury benefited from the rest he's had over the last couple of days, but the running back's practice reps will be managed this week nonetheless, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports. While Mixon is trending toward playing Sunday against the Lions, Samaje Perine, who saw an expanded role in Week 5 with Mixon's touches limited versus Green Bay, is currently on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Joe Burrow - Logs full practice listing Burrow (throat) was listed as a full practice participant Wednesday, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.
Impact Per Ben Baby of ESPN.com, Burrow, who was evaluated Sunday for a throat contusion, is on what coach Zac Taylor describes as "voice rest," but wideout Tee Higgins indicated that Burrow's communication during Wednesday's walk-through was normal. Burrow's status for Sunday's game against Detroit thus appears secure, barring any setbacks. The 0-5 Lions are allowing an average of 251.6 passing yards per game date, while Burrow heads into Week 6 ranked 18th in the league with 1,269 passing yards to go along with an 11:6 TD:INT ratio.
