It was quite the day around the NFL regarding injuries to key players, and Isiah Pacheco was one of those players.
The Kansas City Chiefs watched as running back Isiah Pacheco suffered an apparent injury near the end of Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, and the news hours later wasn’t any better.
Pacheco limped off the field with roughly two minutes remaining after he appeared to have suffered some sort of lower-body injury and was shown receiving attention from Kansas City’s medical staff.
Pacheco never returned to the game, and now the rest of his 2024 season is in doubt.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Isiah Pacheco is expected to miss “real-time” after initial tests revealed a fractured fibula.
Adam Schefter of ESPN added that the standout running back is expected to land on injured reserve, which means he will miss a minimum of four weeks and possibly longer.
The Kansas City running back played a key role in the close win before his exit, racking up 90 yards on the ground on 19 carries.
Pacheco also caught five passes for 21 yards before leaving the game.
Losing Star Running Back Isiah Pacheco Puts More Pressure On The Chiefs Offense
The Kansas City Chiefs might be 2-0, but they limped to that record following the injury to Isiah Pacheco.
Pacheco left Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals during the game-winning drive following a short run where three Bengals surrounded him and hit him low.
A season ago, the former seventh-round pick had 935 rushing yards and seven scores during the regular season.
Isiah Pacheco also set career-high marks in receptions with 44, adding 244 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns.
That is a lot of production that will not be in the lineup for an extended period of time.
Former NFL Quarterback Brett Favre Lashes Out At Taylor Swift, Accuses Her Of Using Her “Influence” For Foul Reasons

Former NFL star quarterback Brett Favre has taken a swipe at pop sensation Taylor Swift for political reasons ahead of the upcoming 2024 presidential elections.
The 11-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro is known to be a supporter of former President Donald Trump and has previously endorsed him.
He’s since taken a shot at Swift, who recently endorsed Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris following Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes informing everyone that he wouldn’t endorse a candidate.
“Good take by Mahomes,” he wrote in a tweet.
“I see a lot of celebs trying to influence their audience instead of letting the people think for themselves. If the best choice for them ain’t clear and they’re easily swayed by their fav pop artist, it’s not going to be a good thing.”
