The Jacksonville Jaguars are in need of reinforcements at running back given their current injury situation. As a result, they are set to host a few running backs for workouts on Tuesday. Their list includes veterans Jamaal Charles and Charcandrick West, per Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Star running back Leonard Fournette is still not slated to return in Week 6 due to his lingering hamstring injury. Meanwhile, Corey Grant is gone for the season after he suffered a foot injury in their loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
That has left the Jaguars with just T.J. Yeldon and Brandon Wilds as their two remaining options at running back ahead of their upcoming matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
Charles, 31, played for the Denver Broncos last season after spending nine successful years with the Kansas City Chiefs. However, he was nowhere near his two-time All-Pro-caliber self as he had just 425 total yards from scrimmage. Charles had workouts with the Redskins and Saints this offseason, but he still has yet to sign with a team this season.
Meanwhile, West was cut by the Chiefs in August after four years with the team. He had 222 total yards and four touchdowns in 13 appearances last year. He caught on with the New York Jets, but he was cut just over a week later. He worked out for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week.
