Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Pederson told FOXSports Kansas City that running back Jamaal Charles will be a major part of the passing game.
“Obviously, we know what he did last year — Pro Bowl running back, had over 1,500 yards, excellent, excellent season,” new offensive coordinator Doug Pederson said. “He’s a guy that we can put in multiple spots. He’s a sharp kid. He’s worked extremely hard this offseason.
“Really, I think the sky is the limit with him with what we’re trying to do. Just put him in different spots and using his ability to, again, create matchups defensively.”
“You’ve seen him sprint out of the single receiver, and he’ll come out of the backfield,” Pederson continued. “He’s a guy that needs to move around, and (one) you can put in different positions, motion out the back, shift him from the backfield. He catches the ball so well that you have to take advantage of that offensively.”
