Chiefs eyeing backfield split in Week 13?
Isiah Pacheco expected to play for first time since Week 2

Chiefs OC Matt Nagy on getting RB Isiah Pacheco back: "The best part about that is you just don't have one where they're getting worn down by the time you get to the fourth quarter." He mentions that workload will be determined in-game, situationally. (AtoZ Sports - Charles Goldman)

FFToday's Take: While it makes sense that Pacheco will not handle a full workload in his return after logging his first full practice in over two months on Tuesday, the Chiefs would be foolish if they take the "hot-hand" approach much past Week 13. Kareem Hunt has been anything but efficient since taking over the backfield in Week 4, so expect him to take on more of a short-yardage or goal-line role once Pacheco proves his health. Assuming Pacheco is fully healthy, he should be considered a strong RB2 option moving forward.
