Chiefs coaches hint at running back-by-committee in 2022

It was a bit of a surprise when the Kansas City Chiefs opted to keep four running backs on their roster at the initial 53-man roster deadline. Leading into the deadline, the prevailing thought was that the team would say goodbye to veteran running back Ronald Jones.

But head coach Andy Reid kept Jones, along with starter Clyde Edwards-Helaire, returning veteran Jerick McKinnon and rookie Isiah Pacheco. Following the deadline, Reid explained how he sees the rotation going.

“You know we’ll just see how it goes for who’s up and who’s down,” said the head coach.
