Reports: Oklahoma RB Joe Mixon declaring for NFL draft

Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon will end his controversial time at the school and enter the NFL draft, according to multiple reports.

Mixon, notorious for a 2014 incident in which he was caught on camera punching a woman in the face, served a full season suspension that year as punishment, redshirting as a freshman. In two seasons that ensued, he ran for 2,027 rushing yards on 300 carries and added 894 receiving yards with 65 receptions.

On the field, Mixon was impressive in Oklahoma's Sugar Bowl win against Auburn, scoring twice and compiling 180 total yards.
