For those who thought there might be some element of a committee approach, Eric Bieniemy wants to make it clear. The backfield of the Kansas City Chiefs belongs to Damien Williams.
While most fans and analysts expected Williams to be a major contributor for the Chiefs this season out of the backfield, the idea of the former Dolphins back as some sort of bell cow wasn’t quite set. After all, the Chiefs invested heavily at the position this offseason, at least in terms of new bodies brought in to compete on the roster.
Carlos Hyde was signed to a one-year deal in free agency, and the Chiefs added Darwin Thompson in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft.
