Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco showcased his trademark power and explosiveness in the Week 5 clash against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Midway through the third quarter, Pacheco broke free for a 16-yard rush — his longest carry of the 2025 season so far.
The play came at a crucial moment as the Chiefs looked to regain offensive momentum. Pacheco burst through a narrow gap, powered past a defender, and accelerated into the secondary before being brought down. His energy and determination once again proved why he’s one of the toughest runners in the league.
Although the Chiefs’ passing attack continues to draw headlines, Pacheco’s consistency on the ground has been vital in keeping defenses honest. The 16-yard dash may just be a glimpse of what’s ahead as the season progresses and Kansas City’s offense continues to find its rhythm.
Fans praised the third-year back for his relentless running style, with many noting that each game seems to highlight his growing confidence and vision. If Pacheco maintains this level of play, more explosive runs are surely on the horizon.
