Clyde Edwards-Helaire starts against Saints on Sunday

Clyde Edwards-Helaire started at running back in the Chiefs’ opening preseason game on Sunday, carrying three times for seven yards while hauling in two receptions for an additional 15.

Fantasy Impact: With both Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon riding pine on Sunday night, Edwards-Helaire was thrust in as the incumbent starter for the Chiefs’ opening drive. He was targeted twice by QB Patrick Mahomes, and he did what was asked of him. “CEH” still has a hill to climb to even make the Kansas City 53-man roster for 2023, but his range of outcomes is also wide enough that he could end up being a factor in this backfield were he to do so.
