Breaking: John Elway Returns to Denver Broncos as Co-Owner — A Legendary Reunion That Redefines the Team’s Future

Houston, Texas – Joe Mixon, the two-time Pro Bowl running back for the Houston Texans, has officially announced he will not return to the team after changes in the roster and coaching staff. This decision not only reflects a shift in the long-term plans of the Texans but also marks a significant turning point in Mixon’s career. Mixon joined the Texans in 2024 and quickly won over fans with his powerful running and impressive receiving abilities. During the 2025 season, he played a pivotal role in helping the team reach the playoffs, creating memorable moments with his teammates. However, after the coaching change with Mike McCarthy, Mixon realized his playing style no longer aligned with the team’s vision for the future. “When I found out I was no longer in the team’s plans, I felt disappointed and disheartened. I gave everything I had for this team, but sometimes, change is inevitable. While I can’t continue playing under the team’s colors, I will always cherish every moment I spent as part of the Texans. I will always remember Houston and the fans here.” These emotional words from Mixon reflect his decision to move on to the next chapter of his career. While Mixon’s departure is a big loss for the Texans, fans understand that such decisions are necessary for the team’s long-term growth. After Mixon leaves, Texans will need to find a player who can replace his role in the offense. Damien Pierce, a promising young talent, could be the ideal replacement for Mixon, as he has shown impressive running abilities in the past season. However, no one can deny that Joe Mixon played a crucial role in the Texans’ offensive success. Mixon’s decision not to return also underscores his desire to keep the great memories he built at Houston. He shares that staying with the team no longer fits his goals, and he wants to preserve the positive experiences he had with both the team and its fans. “Houston will always be the place I call home. No matter where I go, I will always remember the great moments with you all. Thank you for always being there for me,” Mixon says. As for the Texans, while this is a challenge, it also presents an opportunity for the team to rebuild its offense and continue to compete in the AFC. After Mixon’s departure, the team will need to strengthen its attack to stay competitive in the league. Now, Mixon is looking forward to a new chapter in his career, with the goal of joining a team with championship aspirations. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a strong team with a solid offensive foundation, is the destination Mixon is eyeing. With fresh expectations and motivation, he believes this is where he can continue to grow and achieve the success he has longed for. Though Mixon will no longer wear the Texans colors, his contributions over the years will always be remembered by fans. These are memories that will never be forgotten, and no matter where he goes, Houston fans will always wish him the best in his next journey.
