KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco says there’s a reason he’s been especially enthusiastic during the team’s first two training camp practices at Missouri Western this week.
“Right now, I’m backed up on a little bit of play. For me, I’ve got to let that energy out,” Pacheco said with a smile Thursday while adjusting his running-back gloves. “So that’s what I’m gonna do when I’m on the field.”
Pacheco wasn’t allowed to get his football fix this summer. That’s because, after last season, he had two surgeries: one for a broken bone in his hand and another to repair a torn labrum.
