Clyde Edwards-Helaire Fantasy

Some NFL teams have Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire on their radar as a potential trade option, but ESPN's Jeremy Fowler doesn't think the Chiefs are actively shopping him at this time. It could be more of a "we will listen" situation this offseason. The 23-year-old has been a big first-round bust for the Chiefs to this point after his first three seasons. CEH hasn't played in more than 13 games in a single season, and he carried the ball a career-low 71 times for 302 yards and three touchdowns, adding 17 receptions for 151 yards and three more TDs in 10 regular season games (six starts) in 2022. At this point, Edwards-Helaire's best path back into fantasy relevance would probably be a trade out of town.

The Kansas City Chiefs are expected to decline running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire's fifth-year option, which in turn makes him a logical candidate to be traded this offseason. The Chiefs are likely to enter 2023 with seventh-rounder Isiah Pacheco as their starter, and they could re-sign Jerick McKinnon to another one-year deal to serve as the backup. If Edwards-Helaire is traded, KC could use a low-round draft pick to pick up another RB to pair with Pacheco, which would keep McKinnon in a third-down role. The 23-year-old Edwards-Helaire, a former first-rounder, has been a bust for the Chiefs, mainly due to injuries. He hasn't played in more than 13 games in each of his three NFL seasons and finished 2022 with a career-low 71 carries for 302 yards and three TDs in 10 regular season contests.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) won't play in the Super Bowl against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 23-year-old was recently activated from injured reserve, so there was an assumption that he'd be in the lineup. However, CEH is a healthy scratch, meaning Isiah Pacheco will be the primary ball carrier. At the same time, Jerick McKinnon, who's had only two catches this postseason, should also be involved. Or course, Pacheco should be the preferred fantasy option for DFS contests.
