LeSean McCoy

Chiefs Beat: RB LeSean McCoy to take 'large percentage' of reps

LeSean McCoy’s addition to the Chiefs shakes up the running back depth chart. The Chiefs will now have McCoy, Damien Williams, Darwin Thompson and Darrel Williams in the running back room, with McCoy, 31, likely to take a large percentage of the reps along with starter Damien Williams.

Fantasy Impact: 

Williams and McCoy are both capable of catching passes out of the backfield so this could even cut into Williams' value in PPR leagues. Reid typically doesn't use a committee at RB, but this is certainly shaping up to look like some kind of split with Williams and McCoy getting a bulk of the work. Perhaps most hurt here is Darwin Thompson who moves down on the depth chart.

Damien Williams, Darwin Thompson and Darrel Williams were the backs who got first team snaps at Chiefs practice today. Carlos Hyde got none though he did work with the backups.

Fantasy Impact: 

Those with Damien Williams at RB should probably not look at Hyde as a handcuff. Speculation is Hyde doesn't make it through cuts based on this tweet.

Chiefs will be patient with RB Damien Williams

Offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy said the Chiefs would be patient with Damien Williams.

"He's the starter," Bieniemy said. "We need to make sure than Damien continues to do the things he needs to do in order to help himself be ready when called upon."

Fantasy Impact: 

Williams has prepared in the offseason to be the starter but an early hamstring injury may have some wonder if he can handle the load. The good news is Reid hasn't really used a committee approach at RB during his time with the Eagles and Chiefs, so as long as Williams performs he should put up fantasy numbers.

Andy Reid expects an RBBC in K.C. backfield

Andy Reid appeared on the SiriusXMNFL Training Camp Tour and said to expect an RBBC in the Chiefs backfield this season. Along with Damien Williams, he pointed out the play of Darrell Williams and also mentioned Carlos Hyde.

Fantasy Impact: 

If Andy Reid is being upfront here, Damien Williams should be dropped in your rankings. Williams track record doesn't have any seasons with 50 or more carries, but that also doesn't mean he's not capable of carrying the load. Before training camp started, Reid said that Williams was the starter, but maybe his hamstring injury has Reid second-guessing his decision. Maybe we'll get more clarity here, but for now, it is time to let off the acceleration on Williams' hype train.
