The deal is getting done just as the Chiefs are getting ready to play one of their most important games in years, at San Diego, in a battle to try to further cement Kansas City's lead in the AFC West.
Charles ranks third in the NFL with 1,137 rushing yards.
He is averaging a league-best 6.2 yards per carry -- nearly a half-yard more than Brandon Jacobs, who is second with 5.8 yards per carry.
