Charles was on the 53-man roster for Week 1 after the Jets initially kept seven wide receivers on the 53-man roster. However, he was inactive for the game against the Buffalo Bills.
The Jets would then waive Charles before Week 2 to make room for quarterback Tim Boyle. He is now back with the practice squad, giving the Jets a pair of wide receivers on the practice squad, along with Malik Taylor, to go with the six on the 53-man roster.
Smart was in his fourth season with the Jets, spending most of his time on the practice squad. He appeared in six games during his time with the Jets including three in 2022. Before coming to New York, Smart spent three seasons with the Los Angeles Rams.
