Breaking News: Will Isiah Pacheco play for the Chiefs against the Raiders in the Black Friday game in week 13?…See More

It seems that a single loss for the Chiefs – against the Bills – was enough bad news for a while. They’ve since come back and swatted aside the Carolina Panthers; now they’re set to welcome back Isiah Pacheco into the mix.

The star running back for the Chiefs has recovered from his fibula fracture injury that he suffered in September and is fit and firing to face the Las Vegas Raiders in an enticing Week 13 of the 2024 NFL season.

It’s fair to say that Pacheco was a fundamental cog in the Kansas machine that conquered Super Bowls LVII and LVIII. It was Week 2 when he last played, so his presence in the side will be a huge boost for the Chiefs as we enter a jam-packed festive period.

Ahead of Week 13’s action, the Chiefs sit top of the AFC West with 10 wins and 1 loss, the Las Vegas side are rock-bottom of the table, having only won 2 of 11 games, losing the other 9.

As well as Pacheco, the Kansas City Chiefs are set to reinstate defensive end Charles Omenihu back to the 53-man roster ahead of the action at the Arrowhead Stadium. For Omenihu, the tie will be his first time back since January’s AFC Championship contest against the Baltimore Ravens.

“As long as they’re OK,” Reid said about the fitness of his two injured players. “I mean, we’ll check on it again today. I’ve been trying to take it day-by-day, if they’re good after today, then we’ll play them.”

However, the team have announced that Cam Jones is questionable for tomorrow’s Black Friday game against the Raiders while Spencer Shrader is out.
