Jaguars waive ex-UH star Chad Owens

Associated Press

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Jaguars re-signed receiver Charles Sharon to the active roster today and waived receiver Chad Owens.

The move gives Jacksonville extra assurance in case starter Reggie Williams can't play Saturday night at New England. Williams (back) missed practice Thursday, but went through light drills Friday and was expected to play.

Sharon spent the entire regular season and the first week of the postseason on Jacksonville's practice squad.

Owens, a former University of Hawai'i standout, was signed to the practice squad Nov. 8 and moved to the active roster Dec. 28. He played in the regular-season finale at Houston, but misplayed a punt.
