Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid told the media Wednesdaythat Isiah Pacheco will play in the Black Friday game against the Raiders as long as he has no setbacks according to Adam Teicher of ESPN.
Matt Nagy mentioned yesterday that the workload for Pacheco and Kareem Hunt will be determined “in-game,” a bit that seemed to be pointing towards the possibility of a committee. Pacheco should probably be managed more like an RB2/RB3 for the moment in fantasy leagues, at least for his first week coming off the injury. The Raiders remain the exact kind of team that you’d want to fire up a running back against, so don’t shy away completely.
