Yahoo Sports NFL on Irvin Charles

From the article

The only trade the Seahawks made outside of the draft was acquiring special teams standout Irv Charles from the New York Jets for a conditional 2028 pick. He's never been targeted in the NFL let alone caught a pass, so his chance of getting onto the roster is solely through his role as a gunner.

STACKED’s take

Special teams gunner acquired from Jets; no NFL receiving production; gunner-only path.

Wide receiver/special teams specialist Irv Charles was acquired from the New York Jets in the only trade the Seahawks made outside the draft, costing a conditional 2028 pick. He has never been targeted or caught a pass in the NFL, so his roster path is solely through special teams gunner duties.
