Jamaal Charles, Knile Davis, De'Anthony Thomas' Post-Week 12 Fantasy Reaction

Since a Week 6 bye, Jamaal Charles has been the surest thing in fantasy football. 

That didn't change on Thursday night, as Charles reached double-digit fantasy points and reached the end zone for the sixth straight week. After missing time with injuries early in the season, Charles has become fantasy's most consistent performer.

That's hardly shocking—last season, in games he played he never scored fewer than seven points and reached the double-digit mark 13 times. Consistency is kind of his thing.  

Player	Rushes	Yards	Receptions	Yards	TD	Fantasy Points
Jamaal Charles	19	80	4	42	1	18
De'Anthony Thomas	1	9	2	15	0	1
Knile Davis	2	2	0	0	0	0

And that means that fantasy relevance while he's healthy isn't Knile Davis or DeAnthony Thomas' thing. The Chiefs continue to ride Charles mightily, largely because he's a truly compelling talent but also because his ability to make an impact in the passing game is vital for a team that, outside of Travis Kelce, is largely devoid of weapons in that department. 

So fantasy owners should continue starting Charles as the safest RB1 in the game, and should continue to hold on to Davis as a valuable handcuff but nothing more than that. He's earned a spot on your bench but not in your starting lineup.

As for Thomas, he shouldn't even be on your radar at this point. He didn't even look particularly good fielding punts on Thursday night. It's hard to imagine him ever making a fantasy dent on this offense.

Hit me up on Twitter—I'll answer your fantasy questions and make some corny jokes, too. It's more fun than being Aaron Rodgers right now. OK, not quite. Fine, it's not like that at all. Jeez.
