Neither could McKinnon prior to signing with KC. Or Dobbins before joining the bolts.

Jesus Christ, how do you go on season ending IR in TC with a ****ing hamstring?!?

I'd imagine it is given his injury history. If so, I'm good with it. If not, not a fan at all.

Is this Kavika's son?

RB is still a must draft position.

pugsnotdrugs19 03-10-2025 10:36 AM

Not a fan tbh. Hope they can cut him this summer if they find better options in the draft.

Move over Jesse Haynes, there’s a new secret weapon in town.

Had surgery on whatever it was. Maybe it'll get him somewhat straightened out since it's been a reoccurring injury since late 2021.

How can anybody NOT like this move?

26 years old
5’10 200 lbs
4.35 speed (elite)
1.51 10 split (elite)

The Chiefs had the least explosive RB room in the NFL. Only 17 explosive runs of 10+ yards in 17 games. This kid can block too. $3 million is cheap as hell.

They had zero juice once Pacheco was out. None. Perine and Hunt were 4.6 guys when they were young. They weren’t explosive at all last year.

Load the RB room with young explosive playmakers. They’re gonna draft another explosive kid in this draft too to make it 3 young guys with elite speed.

Thank God

Let's hope not.

Because he's hurt ALL the time?

This has be the Perine replacement for 3rd down back.

Pacheco ran a fast 40 also. It's all about how that speed translates on the field. If not for his injury history, people would be more excited about this IMO.

So was McKinnon. Again he’s not a lead back. He’s insurance. The long term solution will be from the draft. He’s a rotational player here.

The 49ers-ification of KC continues!!!
