Tom Telesco: Chargers would love to have Antonio Gates back

Good morning.

San Diego Chargers general manager Tom Telesco talks with Scott Kaplan and Billy Ray Smith of The Mighty 1090 AM Radio in this audio link. Kaplan asked about Telesco's approach to free agency, and if bringing back tight end Antonio Gates will be a priority.

Gates is set to become an unrestricted free agent in March. Even at 35 years old, Gates will be one of the top free-agent tight ends to hit the market because of his production in the passing game.

"Usually at this time of year I wouldn't even talk about those things because a lot of it hasn't been determined yet," Telesco said.
