The NFL has rescinded a $25,000 fine Houston’s Joe Mixon received for comments about officiating in the Texans’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the divisional round of the playoffs after an appeal by the running back.

A back-and-forth saga in January saw Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon fined for words not his own then fined again for words he said within league guidelines by the NFL. But on Tuesday, Mixon got his retribution.

Joe Mixon was among many Houston Texans players who vented frustration with referees after his team lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC divisional round last month. On Tuesday, Mixon was offered a small consolation for his frustration.
