Gets chance as lead back
Smith rushed the ball 12 times for 56 yards in Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Raiders. He added two receptions on four targets for two yards.
ANALYSIS
Smith got the chance to serve as the lead back for the Chiefs due to Isiah Pacheco (rest) being sidelined. Smith led the team with 12 rushing attempts -- his highest mark since Week 7 -- and delivered solid chunk gains of 14, 10 and nine yards. He was not utilized much in his rookie season, but Smith's potential role in 2026 will be worth monitoring, as Kansas City is likely to remake its running back depth chart.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pacheco injury creates opportunity
Smith could take on a larger role Sunday against the Bills in Isiah Pacheco's expected absence, per ESPN's Nate Taylor.
ANALYSIS
Kareem Hunt is expected to lead Kansas City's backfield, but Smith should also slide up a spot to second on the depth chart. Smith got 19 touches in a lopsided Week 7 win over the Raiders but has exceeded four touches in only one other game this season. The rookie seventh-round pick will likely play primarily in passing situations. Pacheco is viewed as week-to-week due to a sprained MCL.
