Fantasy football owners are melting down on Twitter after Jamaal Charles left the game with an injury.
Kansas City Chiefs fans and fantasy football owners everywhere were dealt a terrible blow today when stud RB Jamaal Charles went down with what appears to be a serious knee injury.
Charles took a handoff during the third quarter of KC’s game vs. the Chicago Bears when he planted his right leg in an attempt to cut. Charles’ leg buckled and the RB hit the turf, grasping at his knee.
Right leg for Jamaal Charles. No one touched him. (Vine via @BarstoolJordie)https://t.co/8IWs6FYhiC

Charles was helped off the field and was barely putting any weight on his injured leg. While the injury could be a simple sprain, it could also be a season-ender. As you can imagine, Chiefs fans and Charles fantasy owners did not take the news too well.
And I swear to God if I see one person talk about how the Jamaal Charles injury hurts their fantasy team I am setting something on fire.

Jamaal Charles injury makes me very sad, and not just because I had him in a number of DFS lineups. But that too.

Anytime I see a no contact knee injury where the guy just crumples I always think ACL. I hope that's not the case for Jamaal Charles

We wish Charles a swift recovery. Crossing our fingers that he’ll be back soon.
