The Bengals will have their bellcow running back and polarizing linebacker Sunday against Miami.

Joe Mixon returns after missing two games following a knee scope, and Vontaze Burfict will make his season debut following a four-game suspension.

The timing couldn't be better in the backfield, as Giovani Bernard is inactive Sunday after injuring his knee last week in Atlanta. The Bengals will have three running backs active for the first time in two weeks. Rookie Mark Walton and veteran Thomas Rawls, active for the first time this season, will serve as Mixon's backups.
