Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon has criticized the NFL and NFLPA for not enforcing the new ban on hip-drop tackles after suffering an ankle injury during a 19-13 win against the Chicago Bears. Mixon was injured in the third quarter when Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards executed what appeared to be a hip-drop tackle, which Mixon claims should have been penalized. Despite briefly returning to the game, Mixon ultimately left due to the injury and is scheduled to undergo an MRI. Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans confirmed the injury and expressed hope that Mixon will be okay. The NFL is reviewing the tackle, and Edwards may face a fine. Mixon's criticism highlights the ongoing challenges in officiating the new rule designed to enhance player safety.
