TE Antonio Gates 'actively negotiating' with Chargers

Jul 24, 2018

Agent Tom Condon, the Chargers, and Antonio Gates are "actively negotiating" his return to the team.

Fantasy Impact:

This is more likely to happen than not. The Chargers have a huge hole at tight end after losing Hunter Henry for the season, and Gates is more than familiar with the offense and quarterback. Henry and Gates combined for over 200 PPR points in 2017, so Gates will become an interesting flier if/when he comes back.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters after Sunday’s game that the knee injury to tight end Tucker Kraft “does not look good.”

Update: The fear is that Kraft suffered a torn ACL Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

Kraft was carted off during the second half against the Panthers after needing help off the field. This would be a huge blow for the Packers as Kraft has arguably been the best tight end in both real and fantasy football this season. Luke Musgrave would step in as the top tight end.

Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte left Sunday’s game against the Falcons with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Boutte left the game in the first half and was originally ruled questionable to return before later changed to out for the day. Boutte’s absence would leave quite a void in the Patriots’ wide receiver corps.
