</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">"They intend to get these guys a similar amount of work," Teicher told PFT's Mike Florio. Teicher reiterates the Chiefs' plan for the two backs to combine for 500+ touches in "a perfect world," with "a lot of work for both." Teicher's comments lend credence to our suspicion that Hillis could end up with standalone RB2 value as the red-zone hammer with 12-15 touches per week.

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">Crennel suggested a hot-hand situation when discussing Charles' potential workload against the Falcons Sunday. "It's just by how we feel and how it's going. You can't say how a game is going to go," he said. "The good thing about that is that I've got this guy named Hillis, who also could go into the game. I don't think we'll be disappointed when Hillis goes into the game." The two backs are listed as co-starters on the depth chart and we're expecting 14-18 touches for each in Week 1.

Hillis left last week's win over the Saints in the third quarter and didn't return. No one really noticed because Jamaal Charles ripped off 233 yards on the ground. Still, the Chiefs won't want to make a habit of giving Charles 39 touches in one game. If Hillis can't go against the Chargers on Sunday, Shaun Draughn would see a boost in touches.

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">It's a 180 from the Chiefs' approach with Charles under Todd Haley, who was willing to sacrifice yards and points in order to keep Charles fresh while letting Thomas Jones lead Kansas City's backfield in carries. Charles touched the football a career-high 39 times in Week 3. "He never came to me to say he needed a break," Crennel said after the game. "I was going to keep on giving it to him," added playcaller Brian Daboll. Charles is a locked-in RB1.

Peyton Hillis (ankle) remained out of Chiefs practice Wednesday.


Hillis was listed as doubtful before sitting out Sunday's loss, and there's been nothing to suggest he'll be ready to return for Week 5. We expect Shaun Draughn to back-up Jamaal Charles against the Ravens. Increasingly plodding and prone to injury, Hillis is an extremely low-upside own in fantasy leagues.

Peyton Hillis (ankle) was held out of practice again on Thursday.


Hillis is expected to miss at least one more week, leaving Shaun Draughn to back up Jamaal Charles against the Ravens on Sunday.

Peyton Hillis (ankle) is not expected to play in Week 6 versus the Bucs.


Beat writer Adam Teicher calls the injury a high-ankle sprain, which explains why Hillis has been out for multiple weeks. Jamaal Charles can continue to expect a heavy workload, with Shaun Draughn and Cyrus Gray on hand to give him a breather.

Peyton Hillis (ankle) returned to practice Monday.

It's Hillis' first time on the practice field since spraining his ankle in Week 3. He's on track to return for Sunday's game against the Raiders and should quickly slide back in as Jamaal Charles' caddy. Shaun Draughn has received 34 carries over the last four weeks, but has managed just 2.50 yards per carry on those totes.
