Keaontay Ingram DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed running back Keaontay Ingram to a Reserve/Futures deal on Thursday. Ingram will stick around with the Chiefs this offseason after inking a one-year deal with the team a year ago. The 25-year-old former sixth-round selection (201st overall) by the Arizona Cardinals in 2022 saw 62 rushing attempts for 134 yards (2.2 yards per carry) and one touchdown while catching eight of nine targets for 47 yards in 20 games (one start) in his first two years in the league with Arizona. He spent most of the 2024 season on the Chiefs' practice squad and was active for only one regular-season game on Sept. 22 in a win over the Atlanta Falcons, but he wasn't involved at all on offense. Ingram will continue to train with KC this offseason and will be hoping to do enough at training camp this offseason to win a 53-man roster spot as RB depth.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Keaontay Ingram has been waived by the organization on Tuesday. Ingram was the odd man out with Kareem Hunt being added to the active roster. There was no more room for Ingram with Carson Steele, Samaje Perine, and now Hunt all in the mix while Isiah Pacheco (leg) recovers. Ingram rushed for 134 yards on 62 attempts over parts of two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals. He didn't play a single snap despite being active for the game last week. The 24-year-old will look to catch on elsewhere as depth.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Keaontay Ingram chipped in a team-high four carries in Saturday night's preseason defeat to the hosting Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank Stadium, rushing for 12 yards in the loss. His longest carry went for 10 yards, and he wasn't targeted in the passing game on Saturday evening against the Jaguars. Ingram is one of three Chiefs' backs battling for the top backup role behind workhorse starter Isiah Pacheco, but veteran Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Deneric Prince, who has worked as KC's No. 2 back in training camp, figure to have a leg up on him. The 24-year-old former sixth-round pick has rushed for just 2.2 yards per carry over 62 rushing attempts for his career, so he's no guarantee to make the roster this fall. Ingram will look to do more with his touches in next Saturday's preseason game against the visiting Detroit Lions.
