Keaontay Ingram Chips In Four Carries In Loss

Keaontay Ingram Chips In Four Carries In Loss

3 months ago

Kansas City Chiefs running back Keaontay Ingram chipped in a team-high four carries in Saturday night's preseason defeat to the hosting Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank Stadium, rushing for 12 yards in the loss. His longest carry went for 10 yards, and he wasn't targeted in the passing game on Saturday evening against the Jaguars. Ingram is one of three Chiefs' backs battling for the top backup role behind workhorse starter Isiah Pacheco, but veteran Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Deneric Prince, who has worked as KC's No. 2 back in training camp, figure to have a leg up on him. The 24-year-old former sixth-round pick has rushed for just 2.2 yards per carry over 62 rushing attempts for his career, so he's no guarantee to make the roster this fall. Ingram will look to do more with his touches in next Saturday's preseason game against the visiting Detroit Lions.
