Isiah Pacheco

Isiah Pacheco rushed 15 times for 45 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs’ Week 1 win over the Ravens, adding two receptions for 33 yards.

With Samaje Perine still getting up to speed on the Chiefs’ offense, Pacheco dominated backfield routes and drew three targets. His missed connection was an outside look that probably should have been caught, alas. Tonight it was “Samaje who?” but we would not assume Pacheco is out of the woods yet. He does maintain a TD-based RB1 profile for Week 2 in what figures to be a high-scoring grudge match with the Bengals.
