Philip Rivers believes his friend Antonio Gates’ use of PED’s was unintentional
Philip Rivers and Antonio Gates are best friends. They are always together and Rivers feels if the use of PED’s was intentional that Antonio would have told him, according to XERPS-AM.
“I feel like our relationship is such that if it was intentional, he would say, ‘I messed up. I’ve been doing this, I made a mistake, I just couldn’t do it anymore the way I was doing it.’ You know what I mean?”
He added: “Could I be wrong? I guess. But I don’t think so.”
Since 2003, Gates has been a model of consistency and innovation in the NFL. He’s also probably the most idolized active tight end in the league among young up-and-coming players given his emergence onto the scene.
