CINCINNATI -- The most interesting thing about the Cincinnati Bengals' running backs room is who's not in it.
For the past seven years, Joe Mixon carried the ball 1,571 times, excluding two playoff runs, on his way to becoming one of the best backs in franchise history. This offseason marked the end of that run. Cincinnati signed former Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss in free agency and eventually traded the 28-year-old Mixon to the Houston Texans.
The Bengals have a lot of carries to replace. But inside the building, there is excitement about those who will be tasked with that responsibility.
