A stinger, also known as a burner, is a spine injury characterized by a stinging feeling down one arm, followed by numbness or weakness. It often goes unreported due to the high frequency of players sustaining the injury and its minor symptoms.
Terez A. Paylor reported on Twitter the Chiefs confirmed the injury:
The #Chiefs say Jamaal Charles has a stinger and is now fine.

The injury was a scare for the Chiefs and Charles' fantasy owners, but it looks like he should be good to go following the scare. Keep an eye out for any updates the Chiefs may have, as well as Charles' participation in practice this week to alleviate any concerns.Follow @DManLucia
