Summary

Running Back Rank: #9All Players: #10

Charles returned from serious knee injury and looked about as good as ever last season. He had a career high in rushing yards (1,509) and finished with 1,745 total yards. The only knock on Charles was he scored just six touchdowns. But the rest of his game looked just fine, topping the 100-yard mark seven times. He even had two 200-yard rushing games. Charles was his usual explosive self. He'll continue to carry the load in the Chiefs' offense, an offense that should be better with Andy Reid running the show. Charles should play a similar role to LeSean McCoy for Reid. He'll get plenty of touches as both a runner and receiver. Charles has top speed, great moves and even runs with some power despite weighing less than 200 pounds. He is the complete package at running back. Charles also catches the ball well, having 27 or more receptions in his full seasons.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Charles has huge upside for 2013. You have to like his chances for a career season in this new offense. We wouldn't be surprised to see him be a top-five fantasy back before it is all said and done. The only concern is his touchdowns. If he can get some more goal-line work, he could be a fantasy force. But for now, expect around 2,000 total yards and 10 touchdowns.

Notes

Apr 17 09:43 pm

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles might break his career high for pass receptions this season, as head coach Andy Reid has used his backs as receivers out of the backfield in years past. Charles is perfectly fine with that. 'I'm happy I can catch out of the backfield more,' Charles said Wednesday, April 17. 'This is the most movement I've been (asked to do) in five years in the league, shifting and motion. This is the most I've ever (done). I have to get my mind right and my body in shape for this type of offense.'
Fantasy Impact: Charles is going to see a huge bump in receptions, giving him high value in PPR formats.

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles was a stud in his return from knee surgery, gaining over 1,500 yards on the ground. While RB Peyton Hillis, an unrestricted free agent, is not likely to be back. However, FB Nate Eachus and RB Shaun Draughn provide some decent depth, as well as RB Cyrus Gray. New head coach Andy Reid and general manager John Dorsey aren't expected to have to tinker much with this position.

Jan 06 09:30 pm

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has always liked to use his tailbacks in the passing game. RB Jamaal Charles had 35 receptions in 2012 and could see that number increase next season.
Fantasy Impact: Charles seems setup for a nice total yardage season in the new offense. Reid has produced some big-time fantasy backs.
