Fantasy Football: Five Kansas City Chiefs To Play Vs Steelers
By Ben Almquist
Jamaal Charles – RB
Projection: Watch List
Many Fantasy Football owners are excited about this week as star Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles is set to return. Charles has sat out the first three games of the season, meaning many fantasy owners were without one of their top picks for the early stretch of the year. When on the field, Charles is a focal point of the Chiefs offense.
The question here is how much work will Charles get? I really do not know. However, reports are that he has been anxious to get back on the field for the last two weeks. That tells me he is ready. With a not particularly scary Steelers defense, the opportunity is definitely there for Jamaal Charles to rip off a big play…or two. He is a threat in both the run and pass games.
To be honest, I wasn’t going to include Jamaal Charles on this list. However, given the number of running back injuries around the league, he is going to have some value. If you have another good back to play in his place, make that move. However, going off the injury reports…there’s a good chance you don’t. DFS players, play him at your own risk.
