Isiah Pacheco is close to returning to the field after recovering from a fibula fracture that required surgery. His injury was not season-ending, and he is expected to play again this season, likely before Week 14. Pacheco had a breakout performance in 2023, finishing as the RB15 in full-PPR scoring despite playing only 14 games. Upon his return, he may start with a limited workload, sharing carries with Kareem Hunt initially. While he might experience a drop in production due to rust, he is projected to regain his form by the fantasy playoffs.
