Jamaal Charles has solid fantasy day
Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles had a solid day in the Chiefs 28-6 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. We discuss the fantasy implications.
Peter Aiken
Charles averaged over five yards per carry, but was about the only part of the Chiefs offense that could accomplish anything against the Bengals.
Fantasy Impact: Charles continues to prove himself as a strong running back, but he is doomed to play for the Chiefs, which means he won’t have many opportunities to score.
With the Chiefs often playing from behind there is no guarantee that Charles will ever get the number of carries he truly deserves, but it was good to see Kansas City work him into the passing game on Sunday. Charles and the Chiefs host the Denver Broncos in Week 12.
