Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is still looking for his first touchdown of the 2020 campaign, and the wait may continue beyond this weekend.

The Bengals added Mixon to their injury report on Saturday with a chest injury, according to ESPN's Field Yates. He's now questionable to play Week 4 against the Jaguars.

The addition of Mixon to the injury report comes as a surprise given he wasn't listed on the report all week. There have been no details on the severity of his injury.

Mixon has compiled just 164 yards on 52 attempts through three weeks, good for a below-the-bar average of 3.2 yards per carry. The 24-year-old also has struggled as a receiver despite the effectiveness of rookie quarterback Joe Burrow, reeling in just seven catches for 58 yards.
