Antonio Gates looked "active and light on his feet" in Wednesday's practice

TE Antonio Gates looked active and light on his feet during the open portion of practice, an encouraging sign for a player who has practiced just once since the Sept. 18 game against New England.

"It was good to have him back," Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers said. "He looked good as he always does. It'll be interesting to see how he feels and what ends up happening on Sunday, but anytime you add a player of his caliber, it's certainly a positive."

Fantasy Impact:

While encouraging, we'd like to see Gates ramp up his practice participation this week without any setbacks before plugging him into our starting lineup.

Monday was TE Antonio Gates first practice since before the Chargers Sept. 18 game at New England. He left that game in the fourth quarter after re-tearing scar tissue in his foot. It is the tearing of the scar tissue and accompanying pain as he recovers from plantar fasciitis that hasn’t allowed him to play the past three weeks.

While hoping for what he called “a miracle” that would allow him to return sooner, it has long been in the back of Gates’ mind that he would play again when the Chargers play the New York Jets.

No one is making any pronouncements, but that game is Sunday.

“We have a long week,” Gates said after Monday’s practice. “I didn’t go out there to make any assessments on playing on Sunday. I went out there to give myself some type of confidence, being back involved, and participating … I didn’t go out there to say I’m going to play on Sunday. I just wanted to see exactly what I can do and what I couldn’t do and just take it one day at a time.”

Antonio Gates not certain about Week 7 return

Chargers TE Antonio Gates on his potential return in Week 7: "I can't make any predictions because I don't want to hold up to that, especially with the way it's been going. Fluctuating up and down."

Fantasy Impact:

Fantasy owners should continue to hold onto Gates since he's so valuable when he's reasonably healthy and on the field.
