Chiefs HC Todd Haley said he didn’t want to reveal his plans for running back Thomas Jones. But he indicated Jones, who’ll be 33 during the season, may drop a few pounds from his 220-pound frame. Haley said Jones is in supreme shape, but his carries may go down some, so he might be better off being slightly smaller

Haley wouldn’t commit to how many carries star running back Jamaal Charles will get, but he said this is an important offseason for Charles. He said he wants Charles to take the next step and be ready for more carries if need be. Charles had 1,467 yards (the second most in the NFL) on 230 carries last season.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
