Isiah Pacheco Dominates Backfield Touches In Week 12
2 years agoKansas City Chiefs rookie running back Isiah Pacheco had 22 of the team's 30 carries in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Rams, finishing with 69 rushing yards and a touchdown. He also had a 17-yard reception. Pacheco has taken clear control of this Kansas City backfield over the last few games, and it's clear that Jerick McKinnon and Ronald Jones won't cut into that role very much. Pacheco should be viewed as an RB2 option because of his workload, though the Chiefs offense is usually fairly pass-heavy.
