Is Isiah Pacheco playing today? Injury updates for Chiefs RB

#Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco is dealing with a leg injury. Here are the latest updates. 

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco’s season was impacted by an injury that has kept him sidelined since Week 2.

Is Pacheco ready to make his comeback against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday?

Isiah Pacheco injury update

Pacheco fractured his fibula during the Chiefs’ matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2, which has forced him to take time away from the field.

He began participating in Kansas City’s practices last week but has yet to make his return to active status.

How long will Isiah Pacheco be out?

Pacheco is officially still on injured reserve and will not be available to play in the Chiefs’ tilt against Carolina this afternoon.

Based on comments from Andy Reid it is possible he could be activated for the Black Friday showdown with the Las Vegas Raiders, though it is unclear exactly how much longer he will need to fully recover.

Chiefs RB depth chart

During Pacheco’s absence, Kareem Hunt has been Kansas City’s starting running back. The Chiefs’ second-string rusher is Samaje Perine and behind him is Carson Steele.

This trio has been reliable while the team waits for Pacheco to recover enough to return to his role.

Bears receive tough injury news ahead of showdown vs. Commanders

The Bears will be without two key starters on Sunday vs. Commanders.

The biggest injury news surrounding Sunday’s NFC showdown between the Washington Commanders (5-2) and Chicago Bears (4-2) was the status of Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels.

Daniels did practice Friday and was listed as questionable for Sunday.

But the Bears had some injury news of their own. Chicago will be without starting safety Jaquan Brisker and cornerback Kyler Gordon against the Commanders.

Gordon injured his hamstring two weeks ago in the win over Jacksonville. He has 33 tackles, including three tackles for loss, one pass breakup, 0.5 sack and two fumble recoveries. Gordon is considered one of the NFL’s better slot cornerbacks.

Like Gordon, Brisker was a second-round pick in the 2022 NFL draft and has been a mainstay in the starting lineup. Brisker suffered a concussion in the Week 5 win over Carolina. This season, Brisker has recorded 40 tackles, including three for a loss, one sack, two pass breakups and one forced fumble.

Stepping in for Brisker will be Elijah Hicks, while Josh Blackwell likely fills in for Gordon.

The Bears have a solid secondary, led by Brisker, Gordon and Jaylon Johnson, so losing two key starters for Sunday’s game could be good news for the Commanders.

Three-way tie for lead, Rory McIlroy’s water trouble and more from Saturday at 2024 Cognizant Classic

Catch up on third-round action here.

Moving day has come and gone and now it’s time to crown a winner at the Cognizant Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, the first of four straight tournaments in the Sunshine State.

With 18 holes left at PGA National’s Champion Course, Shane Lowry, David Skinns and Austin Eckroat lead the way at 13 under, three shots clear of five players at 10 under (Jacob Bridgeman, Min Woo Lee, Martin Laird, Kevin Yu and Victor Perez).
