Before Mahomes' injury, Smith had at least three touches in a six-of-seven game stretch. In this second season, more should be on Smith's plate for an offense that he was added to late in the 2025 draft because it has lacked explosiveness.

Smith's touch volume expected to increase as Chiefs seek offensive explosiveness.

Brashard Smith is positioned for increased offensive role in 2026 after serving as a quasi-gadget player out of the Chiefs' backfield in 2025. Before Mahomes' injury, Smith had at least three touches in six of seven games, demonstrating his capability to turn limited touches into big plays. With the Chiefs' offense lacking explosiveness and Smith added late in the 2025 draft, more touches are expected on his plate in his second season, making him a player prop target over 12.5 rushing and receiving yards.
