Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon is lashing out at the NFL over a fine he received for something he didn't say. Mixon started out by tagging the NFL on

Texans running back Joe Mixon has been handed a re-issued $25,000 fine by the NFL, in this instance for his actual comments about the officiating in the divisional round matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Texans.

Two-time Pro Bowl running back Joe Mixon has been fined $25,000 for comments he made about NFL officiating. The only problem is he didn't make that comment.

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon announced via X on Wednesday that the NFL fined him for comments he didn't make following the playoff loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. "I’m getting fined by the @nfl for what someone else said. What’s next? I get fined by them for Connor McDavid cross checking an opponent on a @nhl game! 🤦🏽‍♂️"

Mixon's agent said the NFL improperly fined Mixon for remarks to the media about the officiating in the Texans' loss to the Chiefs.

According to reports, the league fined Mixon for a post on X by a former NFL player, who criticized the refs in Houston's loss to Kansas City Saturday.

A week later, former Bengals running back Joe Mixon is in hot water with the NFL and fined — for comments he didn’t say. As it turns out, the comments were actually said by former Bengals wideout T.J. Houshmandzadeh.

The NFL cited a quote that Joe Mixon didn't say in fining the Texans running back $25,000, according to the player and his agent.

After the NFL hit the Houston Texans' Joe Mixon with a fine for comments it attributed to him incorrectly, the league then issued the running back another fine for what he actually said, per his agent Peter Schaffer.

After getting fined for something he didn't say, Joe Mixon is still getting fined for what he did say after the Texans' loss.

Joe Mixon was shocked after hearing that the NFL asked him to pay a $25,000 fine. His shock turned into disappointment when he realized the reasons behind the fine.
