That really sucks. Went from lots of rb depth to none in one week

It's a next man up league.

I bet Reaves gets elevated to the 53 and plays well.

I want to be optimistic but I think he doesn't come back this year and maybe never again.

That would be a shitty way to end his career.

That's not good at all. I think his time here is probably over.

No teams will trade for him so he either takes a very team friendly deal or is released. I hope he retires by that point because I don't want to see him wasting away in some bottom feeder franchise ****ing up his knees any more than they have.

That's a lot of money we save next season. Poe was the easy decision to begin with

Considering that he's only taken 12 snaps this year and he's had swelling in both knees, this isn't surprising.

Going to IR is the most likely scenario while bringing up Reaves from the PS.

What's up with the swelling in both knees?

Weird.

He's torn ACLs in both knees

He tore the other knee 5 years ago.

Sad. If this is his end it's not much different than Priest Holmes. Hate to see the greats end their careers this way.

Agreed, this ****ing blows... for him AND us

Regardless of whether or not he plays again this year, the team has to 100% be planning for him to be gone.

He's still receiving his $5.3 million dollar salary this year, so it's not all bad for Charles.

I think the Chiefs know this is the end. Otherwise, they wouldn't have signed Brooks to the PS.

Reaves is the next man up.
