CEH has had his injury issues, McKinnon is fragile. If they go down, you have Pacheco, a 7th rounder with zero NFL experience. I know these TC reports are all glittery and toasted marshmellows on Pacheco making the roster on a few early comments. But let's see what the preseason games bring before we start anointing 7th rounders the next coming of Kareem Hunt before opening day.

I am going to go on record here the RB room is CEH/McKinnon/Rojo with Pacheco protected on the PS squad. Never know though, maybe we can spin off McKinnon or Rojo for a future pick.

Pacheco can't be our kick returner if he is on the practice squad.
