The official diagnosis on Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles suggested that he’d miss time. And he still may. But there’s a good chance he won’t.
Despite having a high ankle sprain (and a bone bruise, per a source with knowledge of the situation), Charles remains a game-time decision for Sunday’s contest at Miami.
With only seven carries for 19 yards in Week One and a mere two carries for four yards before suffering the injury, Charles’ 2014 seasons has started off in disappointing fashion. He could get a chance to improve on the initial 1/8th of the season, if he can play -- and if Charles is healthy enough to be effective.
