The Cincinnati Bengals placed running back Joe Mixon on injured reserve, the team announced Saturday.

Mixon, who is nursing a right foot injury, will miss the Bengals’ next three games as a result of the move. He will be eligible to return against Dallas on Dec. 13.



Running back Giovani Bernard will continue to start for the Bengals (2-6-1) on Sunday (1 p.m.) against the Washington Football Team (2-7).

The eighth-year veteran rushed eight times for 30 yards and added four catches for 17 yards in a 36-10 loss at Pittsburgh last Sunday.

Mixon has 119 carries for 428 yards and three touchdowns in six games with the Bengals this season. He also has reeled in 21 receptions for 138 yards and a score.
