Brashard Smith has emerged for Kansas City as a versatile rookie who can be used on the run, pass, and in returns. Through five games he’s shown reliability across multiple phases, including a 322-yard kickoff return tally on 12 attempts, underscoring the Chiefs’ willingness to lean on multi-skilled depth pieces as they grow a new class around Mahomes and Kelce.

Smith’s 8 carries for 28 yards and 6 receptions for 59 yards illustrate a developing floor, while his special-teams value keeps him in the Chiefs’ orbit as Worthy and Suamataia mature. With Josh Simmons anchoring the line and an established coaching staff guiding the process, KC bets on versatile players to maximize the dynasty potential of their offense.
