If Tom Brady departs the New England Patriots as a free agent this offseason, recently retired tight end Antonio Gates is hoping he joins the Los Angeles Chargers.
"If he comes here, I'm gonna be a big fan," Gates told TMZ Sports. "I heard that he might come out here and bless us with his presence, and if he does that, it would be a great sight to see in L.A."
A marriage between Brady and the Chargers could make sense. For one, Brady is from California.
