The Kansas City Chiefs are no strangers when it comes to playing on Thanksgiving Day. They've played on the holiday 10 times in franchise history, with the most recent appearance coming back in 2006.

After missing three straight games with a right knee injury, running back Isiah Pacheco will be back in action against Dallas. It's probably a good game for Pacheco to return for, as the Cowboys have allowed 125.2 rushing yards per game on the season, which is the 11th-most in the league.
Pacheco will share backfield duties with Kareem Hunt, who took over as the lead back in Pacheco's absence and did well in the role.
