ATLANTA – Joe Mixon looked good doing agility drills hours before Bengals-Falcons kickoff on Sunday.

As expected, though, the second-year bellcow running back will miss a second consecutive game following a knee scope after the Bengals' Week 2 win against the Ravens.

The Bengals will again have just two running backs active. Giovani Bernard will start with rookie Mark Walton serving as the backup. Thomas Rawls, signed two weeks ago, is inactive.
