Chargers Designating WR DJ Chark To Return From IR

Originally posted on NFLTradeRumors.co | By Logan Ulrich | Last updated 10/16/24

The Chargers are opening WR DJ Chark‘s practice window and designating him to return from injured reserve, per Kris Rhim.

This opens a three-week window for him to practice with the team before he has to be added to the active roster.

Chark has yet to play this season with a hip injury that’s kept him out.

Chark, 28, was a second-round pick by the Jaguars out of LSU back in 2018. He signed a four-year, $4,447,229 contract with Jacksonville that includes a $1,314,349 signing bonus.

Chark was testing the market for the first time in his career when he agreed to a one-year, $10 million deal that is fully guaranteed with the Lions in 2022. He joined the Panthers last year on another one-year contract.

The Chargers signed him to a contract this past April.

In 2023, Chark appeared in all 17 games for the Panthers and caught 35 passes for 525 yards receiving and five touchdowns.
