Antonio Gates Reportedly Out Against Chiefs

The San Diego Chargers have listed seven players as probably, questionable or doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.  The most important player on that list, Antonio Gates, isn’t questionable at all and will sit out according to PFT.Not every high-profile player listed as questionable this weekend is a lock to play.  Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Chargers tight end Antonio Gates, officially questionable with a foot injury, will not play against the Chiefs.Gates did not practice on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday.
The “questionable” designation literally means that the player’s availability is a 50-50 proposition.  For Gates, it’s currently more like zero.
Gates missed six games last season due to injury.  Before that, he had played four full seasons without missing a single game.  Through the first seven years of his career, Gates played in all but three games.
