Jerick McKinnon Earns Second Two-Score Game This Year

Jerick McKinnon Earns Second Two-Score Game This Year

11 months ago

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon filled up the box score in Sunday's 27-17 victory over the New England Patriots, rushing four times for 11 yards with three receptions for 19 yards and a passing touchdown. McKinnon had an unconventional two-score first half, first flipping a four-yard pass to rookie wide receiver Rashee Rice on some trickery. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes later hooked up with McKinnon from eight yards out for another TD right before halftime. That was the extent of McKinnon's fantasy contributions, which remain almost entirely reliant on TDs whether Isiah Pacheco (shoulder) is in the lineup or not. McKinnon will categorize as such in Week 16 versus the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, but the 31-year-old's scoring prospects hinge upon Pacheco's availability next Monday.
