Scouting report

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Jerick McKinnon was already ruled out last week and then Isiah Pacheco entered the concussion protocol, leaving Clyde Edwards-Helaire as the lone back for Kansas City. CEH didn't take over until late in the game, finishing with six yards on four carries and 42 yards on three receptions. If McKinnon and Pacheco are out again this week, then CEH suddenly becomes an RB1 in Week 17. He gets a decent matchup vs. the Bengals (14th aFPA) and he'll likely see close to 20 touches. However, the injuries will be worth monitoring throughout the week. If Pacheco is healthy enough to play, then CEH becomes more of a low-end flex.

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at New England Patriots

With Isiah Pacheco out last week, Clyde Edwards-Helaire took over as the lead back, carrying the ball 11 times for 39 yards while catching two passes for 29 yards. While CEH finished with more touches (13), he was in a pretty even split with Jerick McKinnon. CEH played on 48% of the offensive snaps while McKinnon played on 45%. CEH was used more as a runner while McKinnon played as the receiving back, as expected. If Pacheco (shoulder) is out again this week, we'd expect a similar split and work load between the two backs. Although both will be facing a tough Patriots run defense (3rd aFPA). New England has given up the 7th-fewest total rush yards to running backs this season. CEH should be viewed as an RB3/flex option this week, assuming Pacheco is out.

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Green Bay Packers

Clyde Edwards-Helaire played double-digit snaps last week for the first time since Week 3. Although he didn't do much, rushing three times for five yards. Although two of those runs were on the goal line as he was stopped at the 1-yard line twice. Still, CEH isn't seeing enough playing time to warrant fantasy consideration. Avoid him in Week 13.

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Las Vegas Raiders

Clyde Edwards-Helaire ran twice for 20 yards last week. Although he's now had six consecutive games where he's finished with fewer than 10 offensive snaps. CEH simply isn't on the field enough to warrant fantasy consideration.

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Clyde Edwards-Helaire has played less than 10 offensive snaps for three consecutive games. CEH has really only been used in Week 1 when Isiah Pacheco left for a bit with an injury and in Week 3 when the Chiefs had a blowout game. He's not seeing enough touches to make him worth playing in fantasy. We'd avoid him in Week 7 vs. the Chargers.

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Denver Broncos

Clyde Edwards-Helaire saw fewer than 10 offensive snaps for the second consecutive game as he was barely used in Week 5. CEH ran just three times for four yards and saw no targets out of the backfield. However Week 6 is a bit unique in that CEH faces a very bad Broncos defense (32nd aFPA). There's a chance this game ends up as a blowout, and the Chiefs lean on CEH late like they did in Week 3 when he saw 15 carries against the Bears. But that's betting on this being a blowout, when there's a chance it might not. CEH isn't much more than a desperation flex in Week 6.

KC RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Minnesota Vikings

At the start of the season, it looked like Clyde Edwards-Helaire may be used in a committee with Isiah Pacheco. But in Week 4, CEH played just six offensive snaps (9%), finishing with four touches for 14 total yards. CEH saw extended playing time during a blowout in Week 3, but hasn't really been used much outside of that. We'd avoid him in Week 5.
