Latest Chiefs Injury Updates on Isiah Pacheco (Ankle)
The Kansas City Chiefs won a close 26-25 battle with the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2, but not every player came away unscathed. Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco is being evaluated for an ankle injury, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The 25-year-old back finished the contest playing 70% of snaps. He had 19 carries for 90 yards, plus five catches on five targets for 21 yards. At the one-yard line, Andy Reid opted to run a play-action pass out of a hybrid pistol-wishbone formation that led to offensive tackle Wanya Morris securing the short touchdown reception. Point being, that goal-line touchdown could’ve put a feather in the Pacheco’s cap and given him an excellent day for NFL Fantasy Football managers.
Reid updated Pacheco’s injury status, though there are no further details about the extent of the injury or any corresponding return timeline. Pacheco was seen leaving the stadium on crutches and a walking boot so testing Monday will provide critical updates to his Week 3 status.
