Clyde Edwards-Helaire Expected to Mix Into Chiefs' Week 9 Backfield

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire is slated to be part of the team's backfield committee in Week 9, with Isiah Pacheco sidelined due to a knee injury. Tracy Wolfson reported that Edwards-Helaire, alongside Kareem Hunt and Brashard Smith, will "carry the load" for the Chiefs. While Hunt is anticipated to lead in carries and Smith will focus on passing situations, it is noted that Edwards-Helaire could mix in an "annoying amount," indicating he will see some involvement in the game plan, though perhaps in an unpredictable capacity for fantasy purposes.
