Isiah Pacheco Won't Practice Wednesday Due To Toe Injury
11 months agoKansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco (toe) will not practice on Wednesday due to a toe injury, according to head coach Andy Reid, who said it's "getting better." It's something to watch with the Chiefs' primary back, but it doesn't sound like anything that is going to keep the second-year running back from playing in the AFC Championship this Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. As long as Pacheco returns to practice on Thursday or Friday, he'll be one of the more popular DFS plays this weekend because of the volume he receives in KC's backfield. In the Chiefs' two playoff games this year, the 24-year-old has handled 39 carries for 186 yards (4.8 yards per carry) and two rushing touchdowns. Baltimore's defense is strong everywhere, but Pacheco has a high fantasy floor because of the volume he receives on a weekly basis.
