Kansas City Chiefs vs. Jacksonville Jaguars | 2024 Preseason Week 1 Game Highlights

Isiah Pacheco - Efficient on three touches Saturday Pacheco rushed two times for 16 yards and brought in his only target for nine yards in the Chiefs' 26-13 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Saturday night.

Impact The Chiefs' top back was out there with the rest of the healthy members of team's first-team offense for the opening possession, and Pacheco made good use of his opportunities. The third-year back's efficiency with his three touches is right on brand for the explosive Pacheco, who's set to once again lead Kansas City's backfield in 2024 and will look to improve on the 1,179 total scrimmage yards he recorded across 14 regular-season games a year ago.

Travis Kelce - One catch in preseason loss Kelce brought in his only target for seven yards in the Chiefs' 26-13 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Saturday night.

Impact Kelce was out there with the rest of the Chiefs' first-team offense on the opening possession and was on the receiving end of Patrick Mahomes' third and final completion of the night. The perennial Pro Bowl tight end doesn't realistically need many preseason reps, but he could see at least a couple of additional possessions in Kansas City's second preseason game next Saturday afternoon against the Lions.

Patrick Mahomes - Plays one possession Saturday Mahomes completed three of four passes for 27 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Chiefs' 26-13 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Saturday night.

Impact Mahomes played on the Chiefs' opening possession, which lasted seven plays and culminated in a field goal. The multi-time MVP has a pair of completions totaling 20 yards to Marquise Brown (shoulder) and Isiah Pacheco on the first two plays and connected with Travis Kelce for seven yards on his third and final completion. Mahomes and his starting offense appear to already be in solid form, and it remains to be seen if they'll log at least a quarter in next Saturday afternoon's home exhibition against the Lions.

McKade Mettauer - Injures knee Saturday Mettauer exited Saturday night's preseason game against the Jaguars with a knee injury and will not return.

Impact Mettauer signed with the Chiefs after not being drafted out of Oklahoma back in April and is competing for one of the final roster spots or a practice squad position in Kansas City.

Hollywood Brown - Hurts shoulder Saturday Brown sustained a shoulder injury during Saturday's preseason contest at Jacksonville.

Impact QB Patrick Mahomes connected with Brown on an 11-yard catch on the first play from scrimmage, but afterward the offseason addition appeared to favor his shoulder on the sideline. After a Harrison Butker field goal ended the Chiefs' first drive, Brown was seen making his way to the locker room. Considering it's the preseason and not the regular season, Brown likely has seen his last action of the team's exhibition opener.

Kadarius Toney - Not playing vs. Jacksonvile Toney (back) was not seen in pregame warmups for the Chiefs' preseason opener against the Jaguars on Saturday, Blair Kerkhoff of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Toney has battled separate ankle and back injuries during training camp, and the 2021 first-round pick will be held out of Saturday's preseason tilt. He may get some reps in Kansas City's second preseason game against Detroit on Aug. 17, if healthy. Toney is competing for a depth spot at wide receiver, and he's also been utilized out of the backfield and on special teams as a returner during training camp.

Isiah Pacheco - To suit up in Jacksonville Coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that Pacheco and the starting offense will play during Saturday's preseason opener against the Jaguars, J.P. Shadrick of the Jaguars' official site r...

Impact Reid indicated that the starters will play roughly a quarter Saturday, though Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com notes that in the past, star players such as Pacheco, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce have been limited to a single series, while other starter could stay in longer. Pacheco is the clear No. 1 option in Kansas City's backfield, with Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Deneric Prince backing him up, so the Chiefs are unlikely to expose him to a heavy workload this early in the preseason. Expectations are high for Pacheco as he looks to build upon his career-best 2023 campaign, which included 205 attempts for 935 yards (4.6 YPC) and seven scores in 14 regular-season appearances, plus a 44-244-2 receiving line.
