Chiefs waive RB Darwin Thompson

The Chiefs have waived Darwin Thompson, a source tells The Star.

Related players: Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Jerick McKinnon, Darrel Williams

Fantasy Impact: 

The Chiefs will run with CEH, McKinnon and Williams as their top-three backs. In the 10 games where CEH played at least 40 snaps (roughly 56% snap share), he averaged 19.1 touches for 97 yards and 0.30 touchdowns per game. That equates to 13.0 fantasy points per game, which are solid RB2 numbers. Le’Veon Bell was enough of a headache to make Edwards-Helaire a shaky start on a weekly basis, but he’s since been released, so CEH’s snap share should rise in his second season.
