2024 RTSports Outlook

McKinnon did not crack double-digit fantasy points until Week 9 but had a huge finish to his season, ending up 20th overall in fantasy running back scoring. McKinnon had 20-plus fantasy points three of the last five games of the season. He had a career-high 10 touchdowns, including nine receiving. His big touchdown numbers led to his big fantasy season. McKinnon also had a career-high 56 receptions at age 30. He will look to earn a similar change-of-pace role this season. McKinnon is a strong back with good speed and playmaking ability. He has some big-play ability and makes plays in the passing game. He has four seasons with 30-plus receptions.

FANTASY OUTLOOK: McKinnon was huge the second half of last year, but we wouldn't expect a repeat. He is getting up there in age and might not get near the workload. He could still be worth a late-round pick. He has potential because of his pass-catching ability. He might get around 500 total yards and 30 receptions.

Player Notes
Feb 12 1:23am ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon caught both of his targeted passes for 15 yards against the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII.

From TheHuddle

Feb 11 5:23pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) is officially active for Super Bowl LVIII.

Fantasy Spin: McKinnon probably will receive a few touches during the game and could be a possible flex option in some fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Feb 11 5:20pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) is officially active for Sunday's Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers. He had been listed as questionable, and there still seemed to be some uncertainty surrounding his status even after the Chiefs activated him from injured reserve on Saturday. In the end, the talented, pass-catching veteran is active for the first time since December 17th, when he totaled 11 rushing yards, 19 receiving yards, and one touchdown against New England. He remains behind Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire on the depth chart but should earn some snaps, particularly on passing downs.

From RotoBaller

Feb 11 2:13pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) is expected to play in Super Bowl LVIII, according to a source. He is still considered a game-time decision.

Fantasy Spin: McKinnon probably will be used mostly in the passing game if he is cleared to play and can see a few targets. He has a chance to be a flex option in some leagues.

From TheHuddle

Feb 11 9:13am ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) is likely to be a pre-game decision for Super Bowl LVIII versus the San Francisco 49ers, according to a source.

Fantasy Spin: McKinnon was activated from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Feb. 10, after being a limited participant in all three of the team's practice sessions over the past week. If he is declared active for the game, he could be a flex option in some fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Feb 10 10:00pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) has been activated from the injured reserve on Saturday. The hope is that McKinnon will be ready to go in time for the Super Bowl on Sunday. At the moment, McKinnon should be considered a game-time decision as the Chiefs will likely wait until the last second to make a final decision. Isiah Pacheco has been getting a bulk of the carries lately. He figures to remain the primary option in the backfield. However, McKinnon could be an interesting red zone option if he's cleared to play.

From RotoBaller

Feb 10 4:53pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) was activated from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Feb. 10. He is still considered a game-time decision.

Fantasy Spin: Managers will want to keep an eye out for the list of inactive players, but McKinnon is a flex option in some leagues if he plays.

From TheHuddle

Feb 9 7:00pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) was limited in practice all week and is officially listed as questionable for Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday versus the San Francisco 49ers. McKinnon was designated to return from Injured Reserve last weekend, but he's technically still on IR, and head coach Andy Reid said earlier this week it was unlikely that McKinnon would play in the Super Bowl. The 31-year-old pass-catching specialist hasn't played since Week 15, so even if he was surprisingly activated from IR and active on Sunday, he'd almost certainly be playing a small role in KC's backfield as the No. 3 behind Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

From RotoBaller

Feb 9 5:53pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) was limited during practice Friday, Feb. 9, and is listed as questionable for Super Bowl LVIII.

Fantasy Spin: McKinnon will have to be activated from the Reserve/Injured list if he wants a chance to play, so fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation over the next day. He will see a handful of touches if he plays and is only a possible flex option in some leagues.

From TheHuddle

Feb 8 8:03pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs OG Joe Thuney (pectoral) did not participate in practice Thursday, Feb. 8. RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) was limited during practice. WR Richie James (foot), DT Chris Jones (quadriceps), WR Skyy Moore (knee), CB L'Jarius Sneed (calf) and OT Prince Tega Wanogho (quadriceps) fully participated in practice.

From TheHuddle

Feb 7 9:20pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) was listed as limited for the team's practice on Wednesday. McKinnon is still on Injured Reserve and has not played since Week 15. He was designated to return from Injured Reserve this week after having sports-hernia surgery, but that doesn't mean he'll officially be activated from IR before the Super Bowl on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Head coach Andy Reid said on Tuesday that it's unlikely the 31-year-old back will be cleared to suit up this weekend. If McKinnon were cleared, he'd likely be the No. 3 RB behind starter Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire. When healthy during the regular season, McKinnon played a limited pass-catching role in KC's backfield, catching 25 passes for 192 yards and four touchdowns while adding 21 carries for 60 yards and another score in 12 games.

From RotoBaller

Feb 7 8:43pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs OG Joe Thuney (pectoral) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Feb. 7. RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) was limited during practice. WR Richie James (foot), DT Chris Jones (quadriceps), WR Skyy Moore (knee), CB L'Jarius Sneed (calf) and OT Prince Tega Wanogho (quadriceps) fully participated in practice.

From TheHuddle

Feb 6 7:13pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) has a 'slim' chance to play in the Super Bowl, head coach Andy Reid said on Tuesday, Feb. 6.

From TheHuddle

Feb 6 2:20pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (hernia/pelvis) was designated to return from Injured Reserve over the weekend, but head coach Andy Reid said he is unlikely to be officially activated in time to play in Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers. McKinnon underwent sports hernia surgery and had another procedure to fix his fractured pelvis after being placed on IR in late December. Assuming he cannot suit up, Clyde Edwards-Helaire will likely have a small role behind starting running back Isiah Pacheco on Sunday. If McKinnon is surprisingly active, expect him to have little to no role in the Chiefs' offense.

From RotoBaller

Feb 5 8:03pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) has a chance to play in Super Bowl LVIII depending on how he does during practice this week, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. McKinnon is currently on the Reserve/Injured list.

From TheHuddle

Feb 4 1:20pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (hernia, pelvis) was designated to return from Injured Reserve on Saturday and his practice window is now open. It means that McKinnon can resume practicing with the team next week, although it doesn't necessarily mean that he'll be activated by the end of next week in order to play in Super Bowl LVIII next Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. The 31-year-old was put on IR on Dec. 24 before he had sports-hernia surgery and another procedure to fix a fractured pelvis. He has made good progress from those two surgeries apparently, but fantasy managers playing DFS shouldn't expect a hefty role in KC's backfield for McKinnon if he's officially active. McKinnon hasn't played in a game since Week 15.

From RotoBaller

Feb 3 4:43pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) was designated to return from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Feb. 3.

Fantasy Spin: McKinnon's role remains unknown, but it's Isiah Pacheco's backfield so the former is nothing more than a touchdown-or-bust option for fantasy purposes.

From TheHuddle

Jan 10 12:40pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (hernia, pelvis) was on crutches on Tuesday in his first day back at the team's facility following sports-hernia surgery on Jan. 2, which was performed by Dr. Williams Meyers. In addition to a sports hernia, McKinnon fractured his pelvis. It all means that McKinnon is doubtful to return for the postseason, even if the Chiefs make another run to the Super Bowl this year. The 31-year-old is eligible for free agency in March but has expressed interest in returning to Kansas City. McKinnon missed the final three games of the regular season and finished 2023 with just 21 carries for 60 yards and one touchdown while adding 25 receptions for 192 yards and four touchdowns through the air in 12 games played. Clyde Edwards-Helaire will have a bigger role as the No. 2 in KC's backfield behind Isiah Pacheco now that McKinnon is out.

From RotoBaller

Dec 24 4:20pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) has been placed on the injured reserve on Sunday. This doesn't come as much of a surprise considering McKinnon has been dealing with a groin issue since Week 7. He was already ruled out for the upcoming matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Now, McKinnon will miss the next four weeks, which includes the playoffs. Isiah Pacheco figures to have an increased workload in the backfield with McKinnon sidelined.

From RotoBaller

Dec 24 4:03pm ET

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (groin) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Sunday, Dec. 24. The team also signed practice squad RB La'Mical Perine to the 53-man roster. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
