Jets, Seahawks Make Surprise Trade, Full Details Revealed in New NFL Rumors amid OTAs
Bleacher Report • • sports
Key Points:
- The Seattle Seahawks acquired wide receiver and special teamer Irvin Charles from the New York Jets in exchange for a conditional 2028 draft pick.
- Charles, 29, went undrafted in 2022 and spent four seasons with the Jets, primarily contributing on special teams with 450 snaps played but limited offensive involvement.
- He recorded notable special teams stats, including seven tackles in both 2023 and 2024, and a blocked punt before suffering a torn ACL in Week 14 of the 2024 season.
- Charles is expected to bolster Seattle’s special teams unit but is unlikely to see significant offensive playing time due to the Seahawks’ depth at wide receiver.
- The trade moves Charles from a struggling Jets team to a Super Bowl-winning Seahawks squad, offering him a fresh opportunity during his recovery.
