talented veteran WR, but not currently active at Purdue
In the 2025 season, Charles Ross was a seasoned transfer receiver with career production across Nevada, San Jose State, USC, and Purdue, but he was no longer active with the Boilermakers due to health-related reasons and later announced a medical retirement. His appeal was veteran route experience, reliable hands, and production in a variety of systems, but the key differentiator now is availability: the skill set is real, yet the medical risk and uncertain participation make him a poor fit if your roster needs an immediate, dependable WR.
