Bottom Line

The best we can say for Edwards-Helaire is that he heads to training camp as the No. 2 RB in a high-scoring offense behind a high-injury-risk starter.

Edwards-Helaire isn’t guaranteed to hang on to that spot on the depth chart, though, and wasn’t good in the two games without RB Isiah Pacheco last season.

Edwards-Helaire is only worth rostering in deeper fantasy leagues of 12+ teams.

What We Learned Last Year

  • Edwards-Helaire set career lows last year with:
    • 70 carries
    • 223 rushing yards
    • 1 rushing TD
    • 3.2 yards per carry
  • He topped six carries just three times all season, in Weeks 3, 14, and 15. Week 3 was a blowout win over the Bears. RB Isiah Pacheco missed Weeks 14 and 15.
  • Edwards-Helaire totaled just 76 scoreless rushing yards on 24 carries (3.2 YPC) across Weeks 14 and 15. He added 6 catches for 93 yards and one TD.
  • Edwards-Helaire ranked 51st among 58 qualifying RBs in Pro Football Focus rushing grade.
  • That followed 47th- and 53rd-place finishes in PFF rushing grade the previous two seasons.

What to Expect in 2024

  • Edwards-Helaire hit free agency this offseason but seemingly didn’t find much interest on the open market. He ended up re-signing with the Chiefs on a one-year, $1.7 million deal with $1.3 million guaranteed.
  • RB Jerick McKinnon, who played more snaps and ran more pass routes than Edwards-Helaire last year, remains unsigned.
  • The rest of the Chiefs’ depth chart behind starter Isiah Pacheco:
    • Deneric Prince
    • Louis Rees-Zammit
    • Keaontay Ingram
  • Edwards-Helaire should head to training camp as the favorite for the No. 2 RB job, but his play over the last three years doesn’t guarantee him anything.
  • Whoever wins the No. 2 job in Kansas City will be squarely on the fantasy radar. Our Injury Predictor gives Pacheco a 90.4% chance of injury this season and 3.40 projected games missed – both second most among RBs.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB KC

7:47am EDT 4/3/24

Clyde Edwards-Helaire limps back to Kansas City

The Chiefs re-signed RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire to a one-year deal, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. CEH drew very little interest in free agency after setting career lows last year with 223 rushing yards and 3.2 yards per carry. He'll be no higher than No. 2 on Kansas City's depth chart behind Isiah Pacheco. We'll see if the Chiefs add to the backfield in the draft. Edwards-Helaire is not worth a pick in early best-ball drafts.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (ankle, toe) is active for today's game against the Ravens. He missed the week's first two practices before a limited Friday and "questionable" listing on the final injury report. Pacheco's gotta be somewhere south of full strength. But we're also seen no indication his role will be limited today. It's tough to downgrade him as a fantasy option on a two-game slate. Perhaps the combo of toe and ankle issues at least gives Clyde Edwards-Helaire some upside, especially if Pacheco gets knocked out of the game at any point.

Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon is unlikely to play this postseason, according to Chiefs Digest's Matt Derrick. McKinnon had surgery on January 2 for a core muscle injury and a fractured pelvis, per Derrick, which is expected to sideline him at least 6-8 weeks. McKinnon's absence leaves Clyde Edwards-Helaire as Kansas City's No. 2 RB -- and Isiah Pacheco in a workhorse role.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco is not expected to play today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It sounds like Pacheo will be active but only used in an emergency with the Chiefs having nothing to gain vs. the Chargers. RBs Clyde Edwards-Helaire and La'Mical Perine will handle backfield duties.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (concussion, shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Bengals. RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) is surprisingly inactive. That leaves only RBs La’Mical Perine and Keaontay Ingram behind Pacheco, who should be in for a big workload today.
