Is CEH on his way out of KC?

[htismaqe]

I was watching the All 22 and it suddenly dawned on me - CEH barely saw the field.

So I started digging through his snap counts and discovered that his snaps dropped by almost THIRTY since Tampa.

In the last two games he's only had 17 snaps in each game. In fact, when you factor in the total number of plays on offense, his numbers have dropped from an average of about 43% of total snaps to 27% against San Fran and 17% against the Titans.

They weren't kidding when they said they were going to make Pacheco the starter but from what I can see, CEH is now the THIRD RB.

Are the Chiefs signaling something here?

he doesn't pass pro, and he's a marginal receiver on the most pass-happy team in the NFL.

Square peg, round hole.

McKinnon is our best back and Pacheco is a distant second imo.

It’s probably time to give Rojo a shot

If CEH weren't a first round draft pick he wouldn't be with the team now. He probably would have been gone after year two and for sure after last year. There are lots of RBs with his production out there to be had.

I think whether he is a fifth year option depends on the fifth year option formula and how much of an increase in annual pay it would be. RBs are not well paid and the number may not be that much under the formula.

I thought it was likely no fifth year option, but if he continues to build on his best year, there is some chance. Seems like Chiefs players and coaches like him and say he can play.

If 5th year option number is too high, I would guess he gets tendered on some level and could be a re-sign depending on offers from other teams.

For players selected between 11th and 32nd in the draft, the same calculation is used to compute their salaries. The difference lies in what is averaged; rather than the top ten, the 3rd-25th highest Prior Year Salaries for the player’s position will be used.

I like Clyde. He's just not an RB1. Wish he was, for the team and for himself. But he just doesn't have enough vision to make up for his lack of burst. I hope he finds a place in the NFL, but I don't he's going to be a Chiefs that much longer unless he's willing to take a backseat to Pacheco in the future (or someone else).

Last year was year two.

Looks like he is 3.4 million on cap for 2023 and 2.5 dead cap if cut. And would be 5.4 million for 2024 if fifth year option.

I would guess plays for KC in 2023, tendered after 2023 but not 5th year option before May 2023 deadline.

Wouldn't stop them from trading him away for a 7th rounder or something, but ultimately that's what it would take to spin clear of the million plus or so we owe them on the remainder of his deal.

Exactly. They'll use him the rest of the year and then he's gone.

Yeah, Pacheco is a violent runner but he lacks vision, just like CEH.

MEH was playing Madden on Rookie level, appears to be the long and short of it.

I remember before the game kicked off telling my wife i wish KC casinos had bookies because I was so sure LSU was going to prison rape OU I wanted to lay like 5k on it.

She rolled her eyes, and then LSU won by 35.
