In the Bengals final two offensive plays of Super Bowl LVI, running back Joe Mixon was not on the field as the Rams sealed the victory. Needing just one yard to extend the game, the Bengals couldn’t convert, leading to a turnover on downs.
After the game, head coach Zac Taylor said that Mixon not being in the game wasn’t an indictment on what he thinks of Mixon as a player.
On Friday, Mixon discussed not being in the game for those plays for the first time since.
