All NFL front offices must ask themselves two questions before adding a player to the roster: What’s his role? And what can the team gain from this acquisition?
These types of questions often tugged at a GM, especially after a key player is loss for a significant amount of time due to an injury.
You have to believe Chargers GM Tom Telesco spent some late nights inside his office going over his head whether or not to add a veteran wide receiver to the roster after losing Stevie Johnson (hamstring) and Malcom Floyd (concussion) to injuries last weekend.
