Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles has had two knee surgeries this season, yet it might not rule him out of a playoff run.
Charles is reportedly rehabbing well and hopes to be able to return for the playoffs, assuming the Chiefs do indeed go on to make it.
As his team plays tonight, #Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles (2 knee surgeries) is doing well, working hard, hopeful to be back for the playoffs.

Charles’s most recent knee operation was less than a month ago. He tore his ACL last season and played in only three games in 2016 before going down with further problems. Even if Charles does manage to return for the playoffs, you have to wonder if he’d be effective given possible rust and the injures he’s dealt with.
