Chiefs rookie RB Kareem Hunt third-string on depth chart

Kansas City Star

Aug 07, 2017 · 10:45 AM EDT

For those thinking rookie running back Kareem Hunt would be a threat to Spencer Ware this season, Hunt seemingly has a lot of ground to make up in the preseason.

The Chiefs released an initial depth chart ahead of their preseason opener, and Hunt isn't even the back-up. Ware is the starter, followed by Charcandrick West on the second team and Hunt on the third team. Obviously, this can change as the preseason progresses, but it's at least an initial sign that Ware's hold on the starting job is strong right now.

Fantasy Impact:

Hunt has been generating some buzz, but Spencer Ware isn’t going to go gently into that good night. Since becoming a Chief, Ware has averaged 4.63 YPC on 286 carries, and his 13.5 yards per catch was the second most of any running back with 30-plus receptions in 2016. It’s more likely that Hunt finds a role on passing downs, potentially replacing Charcandrick West.

Andy Reid is 'a big Spencer Ware fan'

Kansas City Star

Apr 16, 2017 · 12:02 PM EDT

Chiefs coach Andy Reid said at the NFL’s annual meeting in March that Spencer Ware, 25, did a fine job in his first year as a starter.

“I’m a big Spencer Ware fan — I like him,” Reid said. “Well, the kid’s dirty tough. He’s going to give you an honest down every snap. He’s not real fancy — that’s not his deal, but he can block, he can catch and he can run. So, there’s a place for Spencer, and this was really his first year as a full-time halfback.”

Fantasy Impact:

In 17 games where he’s seen at least 10 carries -- 13 of those games occurred in 2016 -- Ware has averaged 17.9 touches for 99 yards and 0.59 touchdowns, or 15.5 PPG (PPR). Those numbers would have extrapolated to #8 RB numbers in 2016. Ware missed two games last year, but was on pace to finish as the #11 RB had he stayed healthy. The Chiefs may draft a running back, which is why Ware’s ADP sits in the 4th round. If he sits atop the depth chart after the draft, he’ll be worthy of a 3rd round pick.

Chiefs Beat: Feature back role could be split

ESPN

Mar 31, 2017 · 8:05 AM EDT

From the look of things in late March, it doesn’t appear the Chiefs will have a player get to 1,000 yards rushing next season either. Their featured-back role could be split between Spencer Ware, a soon-to-be-acquired rookie and perhaps either Charcandrick West or recently signed veteran C.J. Spiller.

Fantasy Impact:

The story was mainly about the author feeling the team shouldn't give up on Ware, despite his struggles over the second half after a concussion. It seems pretty likely the Chiefs will be drafting a running back who could make an immediate impact so it looks as if this backfield will need to be sorted out from a fantasy angle. Right now we have Ware ranked 15th so there's still RB2 value.
