Jamaal Charles Hopes To Be Healthy By This Summer

Jamaal Charles Hopes To Be Healthy By This Summer Headshot_tiny by Joel Thorman on Dec 14, 2011 10:02 AM CST 1 comment Story-email Email Printer Print Photo Rick Osentoski - APMore photos » One of the three early ACL injuries for the Kansas City Chiefs came to a pretty important player -- RB Jamaal Charles. The Chiefs star running back tore his ACL against the Detroit Lions in Week 2 and that's a season-ending injury so, like S Eric Berry and TE Tony Moeaki, we haven't seen much of Charles this year. But the Chiefs running back does indeed live on. He did a podcast with ESPN's Fantasy Football crew this week and they asked him when he would be able to return from his ACL injury. "I think I should be ready by OTA's, working out with the team," Charles said (via Arrowhead Addict). "I got hurt early so I had a lot more time to like, to get myself back and it only takes six months. So by the time OTA's it should be like eight, seven months." That would be sometime in May or June, which is great news for the Chiefs. It's never a good time for a player to tear an ACL but I suppose a positive out of this situation is that all three of those guys suffered the injury early in the year which gives them lots of time to rehab and get back at it next offseason. |

Even if we get him back at 80% of what he was, that's better than anything we're trotting out there now.

I think he will be fine. Look at Welker. I'd compare his game alot to the way Charles moves around.

That's good to hear. Guys come back from that injury better than ever with advances in tech.
Still, stating the obvious I know, we've got to draft at some point a legit back to split time with him since the life of a RB is so short in this league. |

How likely is it he'll be diminished? I expect him to play tentatively for a while, but do players make it back all the way from these kind of injuries? Any examples of who's come back full force? This isn't a part of football I've paid much attention to, but I sure will next year.

If guys in my over 30 soccer league can come back to full strength...an elite NFL running back can.
