Jerick McKinnon News
Wednesday, January 10, 12:32 PM
Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (hernia, pelvis) was on crutches on Tuesday in his first day back at the team's facility following sports-hernia surgery on Jan. 2, which was performed by Dr. Williams Meyers. In addition to a sports hernia, McKinnon fractured his pelvis. It all means that McKinnon is doubtful to return for the postseason, even if the Chiefs make another run to the Super Bowl this year. The 31-year-old is eligible for free agency in March but has expressed interest in returning to Kansas City. McKinnon missed the final three games of the regular season and finished 2023 with just 21 carries for 60 yards and one touchdown while adding 25 receptions for 192 yards and four touchdowns through the air in 12 games played. Clyde Edwards-Helaire will have a bigger role as the No. 2 in KC's backfield behind Isiah Pacheco now that McKinnon is out.

Breece Hall News
Sunday, November 8, 1:56 PM
New York Jets running back Breece Hall handled 13 carries before halftime in his first game back after missing five games due to a quadriceps injury. The Jets trailed by two at the break, and Hall got just two more carries as the Kansas City Chiefs pulled away for a 35-12 Week 9 win. Hall finished with 61 rushing yards and caught three of four targets for 26 yards, good for 11.7 PPR points. He caught two passes for 20 yards after halftime, including a 14-yard gain in the fourth quarter. Hall was limited Wednesday and practiced in full Thursday and Friday before entering the game without an injury designation. He led the Jets' backfield in carries and targets, with Braelon Allen getting eight carries and two targets. Hall has caught multiple passes in each of his four games this season, including five for 63 yards against the Green Bay Packers in Week 2. That receiving work keeps Hall in the PPR RB2 tier for the Week 10 home game against the Buffalo Bills, who entered Week 9 allowing 97.4 rushing yards per game.
