By the time his NFL career came to an end, he snagged 24 touchdown catches and hauled in more than 4,600 receiving yards. Anyone who can put up those numbers over nearly a decade of action was hell of a player.
The NFL is a tough league, but Charles carved out his legacy. Now, at the age of 50, he's passed away. It's an incredibly sad situation.
