Steele and Samaje Perine split the carries after Isiah Pacheco was set to miss at least six weeks due to a fractured fibula he suffered during last week’s win against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Kansas City signed Steele as an undrafted free agent. He split his collegiate career between Ball State and UCLA and ran for 3,294 yards and 26 touchdowns in 36 career games.
Perine ran for 25 yards on six carries against the Falcons. The Chiefs signed him at the end of training camp. He was cut by the Denver Broncos.
Kansas City moved to 3-0 on the season and may have found another running back for its rushing attack.
