Chiefs' Isiah Pacheco (shoulder, hand) expects to be ready for Week 1 clash with Lions

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco (shoulder, hand) said he will "absolutely" be ready for the team's Week 1 game against the Detroit Lions on September 7th.

What It Means:

Pacheco has been sidelined during the offseason after underdoing surgery for shoulder and hand injuries following the Chiefs' Super Bowl victory in February. He was limited in minicamp practices but said he would "absolutely" be at full strength for Week 1. He also added "I'm feeling great right now. It's just a process and that takes time"

Pacheco's 2023-24 fantasy projection includes 236.55 carries, 1,065.66 rushing yards, 9.04 rushing touchdowns, 19.95 receptions, 148.85 receiving touchdowns, and 1.14 receiving touchdowns. He is the RB23 in numberFire's preseason fantasy projections.
