That would be my guess, unless he is your short yardage/power back and/or some pre determined playing time in the offense. [Reply]

I very much doubt they kept Rojo to be inactive every week. His style is actually the best suited to take advantage of what our great line can do..so I'm hopeful that Rojo will get a fair chance to shine. [Reply]

Then it'll be Pacheco, but Pacheco is presently listed as the #1 kick returner, so that seems unlikely.
I just don't see a way they roster 5 RBs on the 45 man active gameday roster. I could see him active in weeks they intend to be more assertive in the run game, but I don't think that's going to be often. They're going to activate MEH and McKinnon is easily the best 3rd down back we have.
Don't care to see anymore what Ronald or MEH can do, but I'd rather see Ronald over MEH. At least Ronald can be semi productive and can break a long run. [Reply]

I think everyone is done with CEH minus the front office. [Reply]

There is nothing CEH can do to earn a contract at this point. Too much data that he is JAG. Worse, really... too much data that he is too small and too slow and too injury-prone for the NFL. Even if he has a great year in 2022 it should be seen as an outlier. Chiefs should not even consider a new contract for CEH. [Reply]

Right,
That why I'm done with him. I don't think we can risk giving him money. [Reply]

The Chiefs aren't so it doesn't matter.
I don't think he's ever been a guy they intended to give a 2nd contract to. At best, he was only ever likely to get his 5th year option picked up. MAYBE they'd have considered the kind of deal that Chase Edmond got.
Hell, I could see a scenario where they try to pump and dump him for like a 4th round pick next year. I just don't see them bringing him back. [Reply]
I'm not sure where you're getting that from, every source I've seen says Pacheco's birthday is 3/2/99. Even the official team site says he's 23. [Reply]
