Pacheco Out, Gibbs Carries Load | Detroit Lions News
from Detroit Lions News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
The Detroit Lions’ backfield just took a major hit as backup running back Isiah Pacheco is headed to Injured Reserve with a serious back injury, ruling him out for at least the first four games. With the season opener against the Saints just 12 days away, Pacheco’s absence thrusts Jahmyr Gibbs into a heavier role, leaving the team dangerously thin at RB. Pacheco, a two-time Super Bowl winner with the Chiefs and a proven force with over 3,000 yards from scrimmage, won’t be back soon—forcing the Lions to rely on Gibbs and a limited group of backups while weighing whether to bring in help or wait for his return later in the year.
