Former UCLA Bruin running back set to start for the Chief after an injury to Isiah Pacheco
Kansas Chiefs' fans and NFL fantasy owners were devasted when the news broke that their star running back Isiah Pacheco would miss significant time this season after experiencing a broken fibula against the Cincinnati Bengals this past Sunday.
With their running back depth taking a hit the Chiefs recently decided to reunite with former Cleveland Brown, Kareem Hunt. Coach Reid spoke to the media on Wednesday about the front office's decision to have a sequel with Hunt. Hunt was released in November of 2018 after a video surfaced that showed Hunt pushing and kicking a woman on the ground. Hunt was placed on the commissioner's exempt list after that, and he didn't play again until the following season once the Cleveland Browns picked him up.
Hunt will remain on the practice squad this week as he gets back in the swing of things, which opens a great opportunity for former UCLA Bruin Carson Steele. The undrafted rookie was impressive during training camp, which ultimately landed him a roster spot in Kansas City. When asked about the opportunity, Steele told reporters that he is ready to step into his new role.
