The Seattle Seahawks have decided not to pursue a contract with veteran running back Joe Mixon. According to reports from ESPN, the team had considered adding Mixon to their practice squad but ultimately chose not to move forward with the signing after he underwent a standard physical examination.

While the report confirms the physical took place and resulted in the team passing on the player, it does not provide specific details regarding the medical findings or any other factors that may have influenced the front office's decision. The Seahawks have not issued an official statement regarding the specific reasons behind the failed signing, and Mixon remains a free agent. The move leaves the Seahawks' current running back depth chart unchanged as they continue their season preparations.
