A possible reunion with Joe Mixon?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans (25) runs with the ball at Bengals spring practice at the IEL Indoor Facility in Cincinnati on Thursday, June 13, 2024. \/ Albert Cesare\/The Enquirer \/ USA TODAY NETWORK<\/em><\/p>\n
CINCINNATI \u2014<\/strong> A former Bengals running back could reunite with Joe Mixon in Houston.<\/p>\n
Chris Evans and Trayveon Williams both worked out for the Texans on Thursday according to NFL insider Aaron Wilson. The Texans also brought in Nyheim Hines for a workout.<\/p>\n
Evans appeared in 34 games over four seasons with the Bengals. He missed the entire 2024 season after suffering a torn patellar tendon in Cincinnati’s joint practice with the Bears on August 15. The Bengals took the 27-year-old in the sixth round (202nd overall) in the 2021 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Evans was primarily a contributor on special teams, but did run for 87 yards and finish his Bengals tenure with 19 receptions for 188 yards and three touchdowns.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Williams was a key piece of Cincinnati’s special teams unit over the past few seasons. He spent six years in Cincinnati (2019-24). Williams appeared in all 17 games in each of the past two years, playing 547 snaps on special teams over that span.<\/p>\n
Both Evans and Williams were teammates with Mixon and could reunite with him in Houston.<\/p>\n
Chase Brown emerged as one of the best young running backs in the league last year, compiling 990 rushing yards (4.3 yards-per-carry) and seven touchdowns. He also had 54 catches for 360 yards and four receiving touchdowns.<\/p>\n
The Bengals running back room appears to be set behind Brown. They signed Samaje Perine in free agency, re-negotiated Zack Moss’ contract and selected Tahj Brooks in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
