Isiah Pacheco Turns In Career-High Carry Total

10 months ago

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco braved the elements of Saturday's sub-zero conditions as the team topped the Miami Dolphins 26-7 on Super Wild Card Weekend, carrying the ball a career-high 24 times for 89 yards and one touchdown. Pacheco started hot, rushing for a 23-yard pickup on K.C.'s opening possession en route to a 65-yard first half. The second half was a quiet one for Pacheco until he took a direct snap on a trick play for a score to help the Chiefs pull away from a discombobulated Dolphins squad late. All things considered, the 24-year-old second-year man out of Rutgers ran hard -- as he always does -- in bitterly-cold temperatures and returned a solid fantasy output. Pacheco will deal with either the Buffalo Bills, who yielded the third-most yards per carry (4.6) this year, on the road or the Houston Texans (3.5 YPC allowed) at home in next weekend's Divisional clash.
