Pacheco has missed three games for the Chiefs (6-5) since sustaining a sprained MCL in his right knee during a 28-7 win against the Washington Commanders on Oct. 27.
Pacheco, 26, has rushed for 329 yards with one touchdown in eight games this season. He also has 11 catches for 43 yards and a score.
Pacheco was limited to seven games last season after he fractured the fibula in his right leg in a Week 2 meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals.
