Listening to the pundits this morning on the local sports radio, the Chiefs went into the season with Steele as the #2 RB. As was noted here on CF, that fumble was a big red flag to Nagy and Reid. Nevertheless, from the "insiders" it looks like Steele will start with Perine being the 3rd down back. Ingram will be the 3rd guy in line. Hunt will probably not be brought up to the roster this week.
So this is Steele's big chance. If he runs and catches well while holding on to the ball, it's going to be fun every week for Chiefs watchers. Pacheco is 6-8 weeks, but considering the nature of his injury and the position he plays, he might not be back until December. I still say that Hunt is washed. I've seen some practice footage and I think I would sign somebody else if I was serious about adding a RB.
