Kareem Hunt Injury News

Isiah Pacheco A Full-Go Tuesday

Isiah Pacheco A Full-Go Tuesday

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (rib) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice. He's on track to play vs. the Texans on Saturday. Pacheco split backfield work with RB Kareem Hunt after returning from his leg injury, totaling 49 carries and eight targets in five games vs. Hunt's 45 carries and 10 targets. We're projecting a similar split against Houston.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (rib) has been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Broncos. He's expected to be ready for the team's playoff opener in a couple of weeks. QB Patrick Mahomes, RB Kareem Hunt, and TE Travis Kelce are listed as doubtful and won't play in this meaningless game. Don't expect WRs Xavier Worthy, DeAndre Hopkins, or Marquise Brown to play much, if at all.

Chiefs QB Carson Wentz will start this weekend's game vs. the Broncos, HC Andy Reid said Wednesday. QB Patrick Mahomes will get the day off after clinching the AFC's No. 1 seed last week. Other key contributors like RBs Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt, WRs Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and DeAndre Hopkins, and TE Travis Kelce also figure to be held out or limited against Denver. Try to avoid the Chiefs offense in Week 18 fantasy lineups. They're currently implied for only 14.75 points in Denver.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (ribs) will be available for the start of the playoffs, HC Andy Reid said Monday. Pacheco was knocked out of Wednesday's win over the Steelers and is highly unlikely to play in this weekend's meaningless finale vs. the Broncos. The Chiefs then get a first-round bye before their playoff opener. Pacheco has remained in a committee alongside RB Kareem Hunt since returning from his leg injury, so neither guy is particularly attractive in playoff fantasy contests.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco was knocked out of Wednesday's game vs. the Steelers with a rib injury. He continued to split work with RB Kareem Hunt before exiting. The Chiefs locked up the AFC's No. 1 seed with the win over Pittsburgh, so don't expect Pacheco to play in the regular season finale. We'll see if he'll be ready to go for the Divisional Round of the playoffs. If not, Hunt will go back to controlling backfield work.
