The Green Bay Packers are releasing cornerback and special teamer Shemar Jean-Charles on Tuesday, per Tom Silverstein of PackersNews.com.
His release will be part of the team’s cutdowns to 53 players.
Jean-Charles (5-10, 184) was a fifth-round pick of the Packers in the 2021 draft. He played in 20 games for the Packers, delivering 11 total tackles. While a limited contributor on defense (40 career snaps), Jean-Charles did play 303 snaps on special teams.
The team’s depth at cornerback and struggles this preseason likely sealed his fate on the 53-man roster.
