Whether you compare the first stretch of the 2021 regular season to the second (or the in-game flip between halves of last season’s AFC Championship), inconsistency was a recurring theme of the Kansas City Chiefs’ offense.
That up-and-down feeling can also be attached to the season (and career) of Chiefs’ running back Clyde-Edwards-Helaire, who is now entering his third NFL season. Absences due to multiple injuries during his first two campaigns have made it unclear what kind of player he really is. While we’ve seen the former LSU running back turn in exciting performances as recently as the last season’s playoff run, we’ve never felt confident in Edwards-Helaire’s ability.
