Isiah Pacheco explodes out of the gate, scores opening-drive TD for Kansas City Chiefs
Isiah Pacheco didn’t waste any time helping the Kansas City Chiefs score on their opening drive of the game.
Pacheco contributed plenty on the 1st offensive drive, with 4 touches totaling 54 yards and 1 receiving touchdown to cap things off. Pacheco flew out of the backfield and found himself with plenty of space to score and give the Chiefs the lead.
Kansas City sits atop the AFC West and has a chance to clinch the division title and a playoff spot with a win. It looks like the Chiefs are hungry after dropping a divisional game with the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas Day.

Pacheco came into Sunday’s game with 805 yards rushing and is close to breaking his career high on the ground. Last season, Pacheco ended his rookie campaign with 830 rushing yards.
Having a playmaker like Pacheco in the backfield who can be effective in the running and receiving game is always a plus, especially in a big game like this.
