Shemar Jean-Charles Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Colts vs Seahawks game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Mar 15, 2025
Heading to Seattle
The Seahawks signed Jean-Charles to a contract Saturday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles was signed to the Saints' 53-man roster in November after being cut by New Orleans following the conclusion of training camp in late August. He appeared in nine regular-season games (including two starts) for the Saints in 2024 and finished with 14 tackles (six tackles) and two pass defenses (one interception). Jean-Charles adds depth to the Seahawks' secondary and will have the chance to compete for a prominent role.

Back in Big Easy
Jean-Charles re-signed with the Saints on Monday, Howard Balzer of GoPHNX.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles was not tendered by New Orleans as a restricted free agent, but he will return to the team nonetheless. After spending his first two seasons in Green Bay, the 25-year-old suited up for eight games between the 49ers and Saints in 2023. He accumulated four tackles (three solo) in the process. The Appalachian State product will now look to make an impression during offseason workouts.

Let go
Jean-Charles was waived by Green Bay on Tuesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
In a surprise move, the Packers are letting go of Jean-Charles, who has been great on special teams since he arrived in 2021. The 25-year-old was competing for a slot corner position, but it seems as if Green Bay prefers rookie Carrington Valentine after playing him in that role late in camp. Jean-Charles will now be forced to look for a new home ahead of the coming season.

Practicing at full strength
Jean-Charles (ankle) was a full participant at practice Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game at Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles has missed the last five games with an ankle injury, but the update suggests he will probably be ready to play in Week 13 at the Bears. He's only played three defensive snaps through six games in 2022, but he could potentially mix in more with Eric Stokes (ankle) having been placed on IR since Jean-Charles initially sustained his injury.
Nov 27, 2022
Sitting again Sunday
Jean-Charles (ankle) is listed as inactive Sunday at Philadelphia, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite limited listings on all three Week 12 practice reports, Jean-Charles' ankle isn't healthy enough for him to make his first appearance since Week 7. Whenever he's healthy enough to return, though, he likely will be relegated primarily to a special-teams role, even with starting outside cornerback Eric Stokes (ankle) on IR.
Nov 17, 2022
Officially inactive
Jean-Charles (ankle) is inactive for Thursday's battle against Tennessee, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles hasn't played since Week 7, so Thursday will mark Green Bay's fourth straight game that he will miss. His continued absence will primarily impact the special-teams unit, as Jean-Charles has logged only three defensive snaps this season.
Nov 16, 2022
Unlikely to play Thursday
Jean-Charles (ankle) is doubtful for Thursday's matchup against the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles has missed three straight games due to an ankle injury and will likely be sidelined for a fourth. He's played primarily on special teams, so his prolonged absence hasn't impacted Green Bay's defense.
Nov 11, 2022
Set for third straight absence
Jean-Charles (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles is set to miss his third straight game due to the ankle injury, though he did manage two limited practices to close the week. He played almost exclusively on special teams prior to going down, so his absence has not had an impact on the Packers' defensive unit.
Nov 4, 2022
Unavailable once again
Jean-Charles (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles missed last week's game against the Bills due to his ankle injury and was unable to practice this week. His absence shouldn't impact the Packers' defensive rotation.
Oct 28, 2022
Out with ankle issue
Jean-Charles (ankle) will miss Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles had played almost exclusively on special teams to begin the season, tallying three total tackles across six games. He was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week, so it's unclear when he may be able to return.
Dec 30, 2021
Ready for return
Jean-Charles (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Dec. 25 and was forced to miss Green Bay's matchup against Cleveland as a result. However, his absence should be limited to one game, and Jean-Charles should return to primarily a special team role Sunday against Minnesota.
Dec 25, 2021
Placed on COVID list
The Packers have placed Jean-Charles on their reserve/COVID-19 list.
ANALYSIS
Jean-Charles will now be unavailable until he can clear the league's health and safety protocols. As a depth-corner, his absence is not expected to have an impact on the Packers' defense.
