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. |

Another thing to consider with Charles is that his injury came without contact or pressure to further the damage. The same thing goes for Moeaki.
The one that scares me a bit is Berry. I hope he didn't make it a lot worse of a tear by going back in...if that is the case, the trainers that let him back in the game should be tarred and feathered. |

I think they will likely be fine. It might take a little while but I'm not really worried. Hell they are already all running and cutting now.

Thats my point.
I think that they should have recognized the injury and not let him back into the game until further tests were done. It's very possible that he went out with a sprain from the dirty hit by Johnson and completely tore it on that first play he went back in for. There are severity of tears and I hope he is able to not only return to form, but not lose his elite abilities that make, when paired with his preparation, him a guy that will develop into an elite player. We need him policing that secondary because he is what could make this defense not just really good...but quite possibly what will emerge as the best defense in the league with a couple more pieces. |

Kinda hope Johnson stays in Buffalo, so EB can take his head off.

Besides... what do we get if Charles comes back at 80%? A running back who can get a mere 5.0 YPC instead of 6.4? |

The hard part about rollerblading isn't the stress on your knees. The hard part about rollerblading is telling your dad you're gay.
