Jamaal Charles not expected to play against the Bears

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid spoke to the media on Sunday to provide injury updates on some of his ailing players including RB Jamaal Charles (ACL). "Every day, we've kind of increased his workload, so we'll continue to do that. I wouldn't expect him to play this week [against Chicago], but we'll get him in there with a little bit more practice."

Fantasy Impact:

It appears that Charles is being eased back into football activities by the Chiefs and is coming along better than expected. The veteran rusher is seeing an increase in his workload on nearly a daily basis since his return to practice last week. There is a possibility that Charles will be held out of preseason action with two games remaining, however, he seems to be on track to be a full-go for the regular season opener.
