The Kansas City Chiefs made a widely expected move on Tuesday, releasing running back Jamaal Charles. He has missed extensive time the past two seasons, and entering the final year of his contract, it was an easy decision to clear cap space. Charles has only played eight games in two seasons, but there is almost certainly a team that thinks he can be a solid complementary options for them.
The 49ers could certainly use a complement to Carlos Hyde, and Charles has been a great receiver at times coming out of the backfield.
