Irvin Charles - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Reverts to practice squad Charles reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Elevated to active roster Charles was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Thursday's game against Denver, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Charles was activated from injured reserve early this week and will be appearing in his first game with the Seahawks. He likely won't see much action as a pass-catcher, though he should be heavily involved on special teams.

Released by Seattle The Seahawks released Charles on Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact The Seahawks activated Charles from injured reserve after the wide receiver finished recovering from his knee injury. The 29-year-old was then promptly released to make room for Velus Jones, who will be signed before Thursday night's game against the Broncos. Charles is also set to sign with the Seahawks' practice squad as he returns to NFL form.

Activated from injured reserve Tuesday Charles (knee) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Charles was acquired from the Jets during the offseason but hasn't played a snap for Seattle because of a knee injury. However, with his removal from the IR, he is expected to make his debut with the Seahawks on Thursday versus Denver and anticipated to hold a prominent role on special teams. To make room for Charles, Velus Jones was released.

Full participant on Monday's estimate Charles (knee) was estimated as a full practice participant on Monday's injury report, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Charles' 21-day practice window opened this past Wednesday, but he was not activated from injured reserve before the Seahawks' 32-29 loss to the 49ers on Sunday. He could be removed from IR ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos, but Charles would have to log a full session during a normal practice to have a realistic chance of playing against Denver.

Staying on injured reserve Charles (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Charles initially drew the questionable tag for Sunday's game after logging a trio of limited practices, but he's not quite fully recovered from a knee injury that caused him to open the season on IR. His next chance to make his 2026 regular-season debut is Thursday against the Broncos.

Returns to practice Charles (undisclosed) practiced Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Charles is on injured reserve, though he's seemingly inching closer to getting back on the field. The 29-year-old, who was acquired from the Jets during the offseason, is expected to spend most of his time on special teams upon his return.

Placed on IR, designated to return Charles (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Seahawks on Sunday with a designation to return, John Boyle of the team's official website reports.

Impact Charles was traded to Seattle in late May, and he suffered an undisclosed injury at some point during the preseason. The wide receiver will now be sidelined for at least four contests to open the regular season, and the earliest he'd be able to return to action is Week 5 against the 49ers on Oct. 11.

Dealt to Seattle The Jets traded Charles (knee) to the Seahawks on Wednesday in exchange for a 2028 conditional seventh-round pick, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Charles was sidelined for all of last season due to a knee injury, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. The 28-year-old appeared in 13 games for the Jets in 2024, failing to haul in his lone target while playing 221 total snaps (212 on special teams, nine on offense). Now in Seattle, Charles will likely compete for another special-teams role ahead of the 2026 season.

Impact Charles will be required to miss a minimum of four games to start the 2025 season after being placed on the reserve/PUP list. The 28-year-old wideout tore his ACL in Week 14 last season and is not ready to return to the field as he continues to recover.

Ends up on active/PUP list Charles (knee) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Jets on Saturday.

Impact The wide receiver and special teamer tore his ACL in Week 14 of the 2024 campaign and ended the season on injured reserve. It remains unclear if he'll be ready for the start of the 2025 campaign, though he can return from the PUP list once he's ready to practice. Charles has played on more than 200 special-teams snaps in each of his two seasons with the Jets.

Officially back with Gang Green Charles (knee) re-signed with the Jets on Friday, Howard Balzer of USA Today reports.

Impact Charles entered the offseason as an exclusive rights free agent and was tendered by the Jets in early March, so Friday's signing was essentially a formality. Charles tore his ACL in Week 14 of last season and finished the year on IR, and it's not clear if he'll be ready to play by the start of the 2025 campaign. He did most of his work last season on special teams, logging 212 snaps with that unit versus just nine on offense over 13 games.

Officially moves to IR The Jets placed Charles (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

Impact The move was a foregone conclusion, as Charles suffered an ACL injury Sunday against Miami and won't return to action this season. He finishes the campaign with no catches on one target over nine offensive snaps. Charles' absence will be primarily felt on special teams, as he was a key part of that unit for New York this season.
