Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles could make it back in time for his side's clash with the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Charles is currently suffering from a high ankle strain, but has followed up from a clean MRI by taking part in a number of drills in training on Thursday.
It is thought that Charles will potentially be listed as a limited participant for Sunday's game, with a game-time decision most likely to be made to determine the back's role in the fixture.
Should Charles not make the starting fold, the Chiefs could look to continue with the impressive Knile Davis.
