The Detroit Lions are signing former Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco to a one-year deal, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.
Pacheco, 27, gives the Lions a new backfield partner for Jahmyr Gibbs after they traded David Montgomery to the Houston Texans earlier this month.
Pacheco won two Super Bowl rings in four seasons with the Chiefs, who agreed to a three-year deal on Monday with former Seattle Seahawks running back and Super Bowl LX MVP Kenneth Walker III.
A seventh-round pick (251st overall) in 2022, Pacheco rushed for 2,537 yards and 14 touchdowns and caught 88 passes for 554 yards and three scores in 51 games (42 starts) with Kansas City. He added 689 scrimmage yards and four TDs in 10 postseason games.
