Chiefs | Isiah Pacheco listed as questionable Fri Jan 2, 04:00 PM
Kansas City Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (non-injury) was limited during practice Friday, Jan. 2, and is listed as questionable for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs are just trying to get through Week 18 so they can turn the page to 2026. Pacheco, even if active, is a shaky RB4. If he can't go, Kareem Hunt will move up into RB2 territory. |
Chiefs | Xavier Worthy not expected to play Fri Jan 2, 03:59 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (illness) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and is listed as doubtful for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Worthy has held without a catch last week with Chris Oladokun starting. Even if he were active, he'd be a tough start this week. The Chiefs have turned their sights to 2026 as Patrick Mahomes recovers from a torn ACL. Marquise Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster should operate as the team's top receivers, but they're both extremely risky starts in fantasy. |

Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes already attacking his ACL Rehab Tue Dec 30, 01:29 PM
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is in the beginning stages of his rehab after undergoing surgery to repair his torn ACL suffered during Kansas City's Week 15 loss to the Chargers. Head coach Andy Reid said on Monday that Mahomes has been around the team as the season winds down. "[H] e's in the building working and doing his rehab, spending a lot of hours doing it," Reid said. "He's really attacked that and will continue to do that. He's around and sees the guys, but most of his time is being spent rehabbing."
| Footballguys view: Reid added that Mahomes is unlikely to make the trip to Las Vegas for the Chiefs' season finale. He was in attendance in a suite for the team's Christmas Day loss to the Broncos. But make no mistake, the initial reporting that Mahomes is working to be ready for the start of the 2026 season is accurate. Whether he achieves that goal or not remains to be seen. But his determination to achieve it is clear. Mahomes completed 62.7 percent of his passes this year for 3,587 yards with 22 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. |

Chiefs | Kansas City works out several players Mon Dec 29, 06:20 PM

Chiefs | Andy Reid plans to continue as KC's head coach Mon Dec 29, 01:37 PM
Andy Reid isn't planning on riding off into the sunset after Week 18. Reid is wrapping up his 13th season as the head coach of the Chiefs, and he said on Monday that he's looking forward to No. 14. "I think I'm coming back, right?" Reid said, via Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com. "If they'll have me back, I'll come back. You never know in this business; that's a tough one. But I plan on it, yeah."
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs made the playoffs for 10 straight seasons before falling short of the postseason this year. That run included five trips to the Super Bowl in the last six years, so it's hard to imagine the Chiefs are going to be clamoring to push Reid out the door because of one unsuccessful season. As PFT's Josh Alper noted, the team may be saying farewell to tight end Travis Kelce and other players who had a hand in that long run of success. Still, the return of Reid to the sidelines and a return to health for quarterback Patrick Mahomes provide reason to think that the team can find its way back to the postseason. |

Chiefs | Rashee Rice placed on IR Wed Dec 24, 03:19 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (concussion) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Wednesday, Dec. 24.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs season is over, and they'll close things out without Rice on the field. He missed six games due to suspension, but when Rice was out there he did produce for the Chiefs' offense. In eight games, Rice finished with 53 catches for 571 yards and five touchdowns. With his skill set (and a healthy Patrick Mahomes), Rice should be considered a WR1 for Fantasy GMs in 2026. |
