2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kansas City has had success with late-round running backs in recent years, most notably 2022 seventh-round pick Isiah Pacheco, but Smith brings a very different skill set to the table. The SMU product converted from wide receiver in college, giving him real upside as a passing-down option in the NFL, and he impressed at the combine by posting a 4.39 time in the 40-yard dash. Smith could also provide value as a kick returner, but with Pacheco and Kareem Hunt at the top of the depth chart, he could struggle to crack the gameday roster as a rookie. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Signed a four-year, $4.33 million contract with the Chiefs in May of 2025.
Phased out of offense
Smith returned one kickoff for 33 yards during the Chiefs' 31-28 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Smith played just five snaps and didn't see a touch on offense following Isiah Pacheco's return from a three-game absence due to a knee injury. Smith figures to see seldom use on offense in games for which Pacheco and Kareem Hunt are both active, though Smith should continue to see work on kickoffs as a returner.

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.
