ST. JOSEPH
At 28 years old, Jamaal Charles is smack dab in the middle of his prime.
But no running back — even elite ones like Charles— can truly live up to their potential without a well-oiled offensive line, something Charles hopes the Chiefs’ group is better equipped to be this year.
“It was rough,” Charles said with a laugh Wednesday, when asked about last year’s offensive line. “But at the end of the day, this is the National Football (League). You get paid to do your job.”
Charles did that a year ago, when he racked up 1,324 yards from scrimmage and 14 touchdowns.
