The Kansas City Chiefs will be getting some much-needed reinforcements in Week 13 for their matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders on Black Friday.
In a post to Twitter on Thursday, the Chiefs announced that they had officially activated running back Isiah Pacheco and defensive lineman Charles Omenihu from their injured reserve list, paving the way for Kansas City’s stars to make a triumphant return to the field.
Pacheco was injured in Week 2 during the Chiefs’ win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Omenihu suffered a knee injury during Kansas City’s playoff run earlier this year and has not yet seen action in the Chiefs’ 2024 campaign.

It is unclear what role Pacheco and Omenihu will play for Kansas City in Week 13, but the Chiefs will benefit from their return, even if the team decides to ease the veterans back into action.
Stay tuned to see how Pacheco and Omenihu factor into Kansas City’s game plan for the Raiders.
