Antonio Gates 'uncertain' for Chargers' matchup with Colts
San Diego Chargers tight end Antonio Gates' (hamstring) status is "uncertain" for Week 3 at the Indianapolis Colts, according to The San Diego Union-Tribune.
What It Means:
The Chargers added tight end Austin Traylor to their practice squad, implying Gates' absence from Wednesday's absence from practice wasn't merely just a day of rest for the 36-year-old veteran. Beat writer Michael Gehlken speculates tight end Asante Cleveland could be promoted from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game, "perhaps with Gates inactive." The hits don't stop coming for San Diego and Gates' owners should have a backup plan at tight end for Week 3.
Out of the 40 tight ends with at least 5 targets through the first two weeks of the season, Gates ranks 30th in Reception Net Expected Points per target.
