Chazeray Dijon "Chaz" Schilens (born Chazeray Dijon Simmons November 7, 1985) is an American football wide receiver who is currently a member of the Saskatchewan Roughriders. He was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL Draft. He played high school football at Highland High School in Gilbert, Arizona, and college football at San Diego State.

Entering Week 9 of the 2008 campaign, Schilens was named a starter, playing opposite Javon Walker. Schilens was also a factor in the outside blocking game, adding extra yardage on running plays with key blocks. In week 16, Schilens had his best game as a Raider, catching three passes for 52 yards including a 20-yard touchdown. He finished the 2008 campaign with 15 catches for 226 yards and two touchdowns.

Chaz broke the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot in August, 2009, but returned to action midway through the season and caught the game winning touchdown in an upset in Week 15 over the rival Denver Broncos.

In 2010, Schilens had another injury-plagued campaign, playing in only five games and catching five passes total.

Schilens was signed by the New York Jets on March 16, 2012. In Schilens' first game as a Jet, he caught one pass for 8 yards from Mark Sanchez. The Jets went on to win 48-28 over division rival Buffalo Bills.

Schilens was signed by the Detroit Lions on July 24, 2013. Schilens was released on August 23, 2013.

On March 4, 2014 Schilens agreed to terms with the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League.
