WATCH: Antonio Gates looks plenty healthy on big Chargers gain


Healthy knee or not, Antonio Gates wasn't going to miss a start in Week 8.
The Chargers are sure glad he suited up against the Baltimore Ravens. Here's how he started off at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday:
That injured MCL? Looks healthy enough to rip through a less-than-stellar secondary on one of his trademark crossing routes. He even added a little stutter step to break free.
Then, like the grizzled veteran he is, Gates ducked out of bounds to avoid an unnecessary hit. No need to risk that knee.
There was a chance Antonio Gates wasn't going to play today. He looks pretty good on this 30-yard catch. #SDvsBAL https://t.co/wsYfF5WZH5
