Kansas City’s backfield is shaping up as a multi-headed committee for 2025. Isiah Pacheco opened as the lead, but a fracture and coaching shifts push the Chiefs toward a committee vibe with Elijah Mitchell in the mix. Brashard Smith is highlighted for pass-catching upside and possible eventual ground-game workload, while Kareem Hunt’s 2024 stumble casts doubt on any big rebound. DK-style depth charts aside, Smith carries the best dynasty and late-redraft appeal, with Mitchell providing veteran depth and Rice growing into a potential midseason target.
