Kent Babb of The Kansas City Star reports via twitter that Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles is still the featured back in Kansas City despite the teams recent signing of Thomas Jones. The Chiefs signed running back Thomas Jones to a two-year, $5 Million contract on Tuesday. Charles is expected to split carries with Jones which should help Charles stay fresh throughout the year.

I guess that's good news. But I assume Thomas Jones is going to get anywhere from 150-200 carries by years end.

If Charles can re-produce his numbers with limited carries like he did last season, Chief fans certainly won't complain.

200 carries is still over 1,000 yards dude.

The thing I like about signing Jones is it will keep the defense totally off guard.

They'll never know what kind of rushing attack they're gonna face.

Charles had over 1,100 rushing yards with under 200 carries last season. If Jones receives about the same amount of carries, the Chiefs could give the NFL's sixth RB Tandem in NFL history to have two 1,000 yard rushers on the same team, granted if the Chiefs fix their O-Line. But they are moving in the right direction. A new era in KC is rapidly approaching.

I meant Thomas Jones 150-200 Carries. Last year you guys had 376 Carries by Running backs. Maybe be like 150 carries for Thomas, and 200ish For Charles.
