The Kansas City Chiefs faced uncertainty regarding their running back rotation at the start of the season, with Isiah Pacheco expected to lead but other roles up in the air. Clyde Edwards-Helaire's non-football illness and the addition of Samaje Perine and Kareem Hunt added complexity. Undrafted rookie Carson Steele, initially a question mark, has secured a spot on the 53-man roster and has adapted well under head coach Andy Reid's guidance.

Steele has learned valuable skills from Hunt, enhancing his game in blocking and catching. Despite a promising start, Steele's offensive workload has diminished significantly in recent weeks. However, with Pacheco out and Hunt doubtful for the upcoming game against the Denver Broncos, Steele may have an opportunity to contribute significantly alongside Perine. His role remains uncertain, but he is prepared to take on whatever is needed.
