Mahomes Reveals Isiah Pacheco 'Pop' Prediction

The Kansas City Chiefs have dealt with their fair share of injuries this season, one of which was running back Isiah Pacheco's leg injury in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

While the Chiefs' run game hasn't suffered due to the signing of Kareen Hunt, there's no replacing a player like Pacheco, who has developed into a key offensive weapon for Andy Reid.

But now, after missing the last nine weeks, it appears that "Pop" is getting closer to a return and may even suit up against the Las Vegas Raiders, which would be a big boost to the offense.

And quarterback Patrick Mahomes is looking forward to No. 10's return. ... with a sharp prediction.

“He’s going to be Pop,” Mahomes said. “Obviously, we’re going to have to work him back to when he’s ready and then when he gets on the field, not trying to overdo it. But he’s going to have energy, he’s going to want to be on the football field, but I think that is good that we have a good room of running backs that we can not make him go and take 30 carries, we can just let him be who he is and make those big plays happen and bring him along as the season goes.”
