Antonio Gates on verge of signing with Chargers?

The Chargers haven’t made any moves to replace tight end Hunter Henry, who is out for the season after tearing his ACL at OTAs.

They signed former Bronco Virgil Green in free agency, but he was brought in to help in the running game. Every other tight end on the roster has little to no experience.

The Chargers will almost certainly claim one off waivers at the end of training camp. They might also sign one befofe training camp gets underway on Saturday.

Longtime Charger and future Hall of Famer Antonio Gates is actively negotiating with the Chargers, according to his agent, Tom Condon.
