Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco misses Wednesday practice

Pete Sweeney

Dec 13, 2023 · 1:25 PM EST

The Chiefs say LB Leo Chenal and S Mike Edwards are sick. LT Donovan Smith (neck) and RB Isiah Pacheco (shoulder) are still working their way back.

All four players won't practice Wednesday ahead of the Patriots game on Sunday.

Related Players: Jerick McKinnon, Clyde Edwards-Helaire

Fantasy Impact:

The RB split in Week 13 operated basically the way we expected it to, with Edwards-Helaire taking the majority of the between-the-20s looks and McKinnon finding the end zone on limited touches, which seems to be his modus operandi. If Pacheco goes, he's the back to start here.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially OUT for Week 14

The Chiefs are ruling out RB Isiah Pacheco, LB Drue Tranquill, DB Bryan Cook, and OT Donovan Smith for their game against the Bills.

Related Players: Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Jerick McKinnon

Fantasy Impact:

This was a fantastic spot for Pacheco, which makes this hurt even more as we head into the final week of almost every fantasy league's regular season. Pacheco has been locked in as the first option in the backfield this season, so we don't have many data points to pull from while predicting the Week 14 rotation.

With that said, we should expect Clyde Edwards-Helaire to get a majority of the short-yardage and goal line work, while Jerick McKinnon —if healthy— figures to get a ton of the passing game work, which should make him very valuable in PPR leagues. It's worth mentioning that the team will be pulling rookie Deneric Prince from the practice squad again. He can be added to teams with deep benches, in case the Pacheco injury hangs around through the fantasy playoffs.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco misses second straight practice

Isiah Pacheco will again miss practice today with shoulder injury. Cook, Tranquill, Donovan Smith also not working today

Related Players: Jerick McKinnon, Clyde Edwards-Helaire

Fantasy Impact:

Pacheco missing what is, on-paper, a great high-scoring affair would be very upsetting for fantasy managers. If he were to miss, Edwards-Helaire would get a huge boost from fantasy irrelevancy to FLEX option. Jerick McKinnon, if healthy, would be in the same boat, as a great pass-catching option, particularly in PPR leagues.

Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon expected to play in Week 13

The Chiefs say they will probably wait a week on LB Nick Bolton. Everybody else — including RB Jerick McKinnon and WR Kadarius Toney — is expected to play against the Packers.

Related Players: Isiah Pacheco, Clyde Edwards-Helaire

Fantasy Impact:

This definitely impacts Isiah Pacheco's ceiling —he caught all of his targets for a 5-34 line in McKinnon's Week 12 absence— but that doesn't mean he isn't a slam dunk play here in Week 13 as a fringe RB1/2. As for McKinnon, he can be considered a desperation FLEX, but keep in mind that he only has two games with double-digit fantasy points on the season.
