Chiefs’ major setback in their Week 15 victory over the Patriots was caused by big injury 📰.
Isiah Pacheco had clean-up surgery for a shoulder injury, which kept him out of the Chiefs’ last two games. However, it appears that Pacheco will play for Kansas City in Week 16.
The Chiefs have a chance to secure the AFC West against the Raiders, and Andy Reid confirmed to the reporters on Monday that Pacheco will be back.
Pacheco’s comeback will be a huge help to the Chiefs offense, as he has been their most reliable offensive player since
Pacheco’s comeback will be a huge help to the Chiefs offense, as he has been their most reliable offensive player since Rashee Rice.
Pacheco has 176 rushes for 779 yards and 6 touchdowns this season in addition to 33 airborne receptions for 208 yards and an additional score.
Over the past two weeks, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Jerick McKinnon have each played well; but, Pacheco is unquestionably the team’s most gifted running back.
It was reasonable to worry that Pacheco might be sidelined for the remainder of the season, but Reid’s assurance that Pacheco will play should allay those worries.
