The KC Chiefs play the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday night and there was a question of whether Jamaal Charles would play in the game following his knee foot strain nearly two weeks ago. After missing last week's game agains the San Francisco 49ers, it appears Charles will play in the third preseason game against Pittsburgh ... if his Twitter account is to be believed.
About to get ready to play tonight..

Andy Reid said throughout the week that Jamaal is healthy and would have played last week if it were a regular season game. Charles, for his part, described his injury earlier this week, indicating that he was ready to test out his knee, which he hurt nearly two weeks ago.
There was one report that Charles would sit for the rest of the preseason but the Chiefs never confirmed that. Apparently that's not the case.
