Chiefs Make Isiah Pacheco Announcement Ahead of Free Agency

The Kansas City Chiefs have used the last couple of weeks to officially turn the page on the 2024 season. All attention is on the 2025 offseason and how they’ll make some changes to the roster to make another run at a Super Bowl.

Isiah Pacheco missed time during the regular season with a fractured fibula before returning in December ahead of the postseason. Despite not looking like his typical self, the 25-year-old secured an award.

Pacheco was this year’s recipient of the Ed Block Courage Award for the Chiefs.

Chiefs News: Pacheco Wins Ed Block Courage Award

Every year, a player from all 32 teams gets handed this honor. This award highlights commitments to the principles of sportsmanship and courage. What makes this accomplishment better is the vote come solely from players on the locker room.

The winner of this award also shows someone who is active in the community and has emerged as a role model. Patrick Mahomes won this award for the Chiefs during the 2023 campaign, and it stayed on the offensive side for the 2024 season.

Despite being in the NFL for three years, the Rutgers product has developed into a quality presence on and off the field.

As a playmaker, Pacheco runs hard with every carry and has the ability to be a weapon out of the backfield. In 38 career games, he has compiled 2,075 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns. As a pass-catcher, he logged 69 receptions for 453 receiving yards and two scores.

The Chiefs will lean heavily on Pacheco in 2025, with Kareem Hunt and Samaje Perine slated to hit free agency. Having him available to suit up gives the offense a boost while his presence off the field has gone a long way.

Even though the season didn’t end the way Chiefs fans hoped, this acknowledgment is the latest example that Kansas City has the right group of guys in the locker room.
