Jets’ special teams ace Irvin Charles (ACL) out for season

New York Jets special teams standout Irvin Charles will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL.

Charles, 27, was injured while covering a punt in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s 32-26 overtime loss at Miami.

Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich confirmed Wednesday that Charles is headed to injured reserve.

“In a very tough, challenging year in a lot of ways, an absolute bright spot for this team,” Ulbrich said. “I really believe had he finished the season playing the way he was playing, he would’ve been a shoo-in for (the) Pro Bowl as far as the special teams player is concerned, the core player.”

Charles appeared in 13 games this year, playing 214 snaps as a gunner on special teams and 10 as a wide receiver on offense. He blocked a punt against the Tennessee Titans in Week 2.

Undrafted in 2022, Charles made his NFL debut last season and played in 12 games for the Jets. He has accumulated 14 career tackles.
