Lions sign Isiah Pacheco to back Gibbs after Montgomery trade
Detroit has signed former Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco to back Jahmyr Gibbs after trading David Montgomery to the Houston Texans. Pacheco has 2,537 rushing yards and 14 TDs in four seasons, with a peak 2023 campaign of 935 yards and seven scores, though injuries have limited him recently. If healthy, he provides physicality and can spell Gibbs, potentially taking on some third-down and goal-line work as Detroit reassesses its backfield role.
