Chiefs waive RB Cylde Edwards-Helaire

The Chiefs have waived their former first-round pick Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

Related players: Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt, Samaje Perine, Carson Steele

Fantasy Impact:

CEH missed some time this season for mental health reasons, an issue that goes back several years, but the Chiefs are pretty comfortable with their backfield after signing Hunt and recently getting Pacheco back from his leg injury. The team also has Perine and Steele. CEH often played key roles for the Chiefs in their playoff runs, so he may get another chance with another team, but likely isn't going to be fantasy-worthy in typical redraft leagues this season.

Chiefs activate RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire

Clyde Edwards-Helaire is back for Kansas City.

Per the NFL’s daily transaction wire, the Chiefs have activated Edwards-Helaire off of the non-football injury list to the 53-man roster.

Fantasy Impact:

Edwards-Helaire returned to practice earlier this month and had been dealing with physical effects stemming from post-traumatic stress disorder, including nausea and vomiting, the story said. With Hunt seemingly taking over the RB1 role, there could be a path for CEH to get back to an RB2 role, jumping ahead of Perine and Steele. The Chiefs seem to trust CEH, and HC Andy Reid was quoted in the story saying, "We're awful glad to have him here."

Chiefs to place RB Isiah Pacheco (leg) on IR

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco is expected to land on injured reserve with the fibula injury he suffered Sunday vs. the Bengals.

Related players: Samaje Perine, Carson Steele, Clyde Edwards-Helaire

Fantasy Impact:

Pacheco will miss a minimum of four weeks and quite possibly longer, per Schefter's sources. He is undergoing additional testing today to determine the full damage, according to the rest of the post, but the injury did not look good. For now, Steele and Perine are expected to split the RB duties with Steele likely getting early down carries and Perine the passing down back. CEH is on the NFI list, reportedly for mental health issues. He will need to miss the first four games but there hasn't been a timetable for his return. The Chiefs will likely have to make a move at the position, at least until CEH is able to come back.

Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire placed on NFI list

The Chiefs have placed RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire on the reserve/non-football illness list.

Related players: Isiah Pacheco, Carson Steele, Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

As the post points out, it's makes the addition of Perine all that more important to the Chiefs backfield. Reports say CEH is dealing with a mental health issue and he'll at least miss the first four games of the season. Perine could fall right in as the RB2 because of being a change of pace option as well as a passing down option. Steele likely stays as the team's RB3.
