Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles held out briefly on Wednesday in order to get a new deal, but that’s not what he would have you believe.
I had no intention on holding out…I just ran out of gas on the way to camp and my cell phone battery died. It was a long walk I tell ya.

This tweet was simply outstanding and I’m sure Charles is very happy with his new deal that makes him the second-highest paid running back behind Adrian Peterson.
Chiefs are giving RB Jamaal Charles a two-year extension that makes him 2nd-highest paid back in league and ties him to KC for four seasons.
