Charles didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the Steelers. Charles made a valiant effort on his first target of the season, nearly getting both knees down on a low catch in the back of the end zone, but it looked like he couldn't quite maintain control on his way to the ground. His spot on the roster is safe thanks to Charles' contributions as the gunner on special teams, but Charles has been targeted on offense only twice in 19 NFL games.

Charles (hip) was not listed on the Jets' injury report Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Charles sustained a hip injury during the Jets' second preseason game against the Panthers. He was held out of the preseason finale against the Giants, but Charles appears to be over the injury and will suit up for Monday's regular-season opener against the 49ers.
Charles is questionable to return to Saturday's exhibition contest against Carolina due to a hip injury. Charles didn't draw a target before getting hurt, and it's unclear if he'll be able to reenter the game. The 6-foot-4 wideout has had a strong camp and has a solid chance of making the 53-man roster if the toe issue doesn't prove to be serious. As with last year, Charles may see most of his work on special teams if he does make the cut, though it's certainly possible that he could get more opportunities on offense this season.
