Chargers RB Melvin Gordon wants his QB and TE to win a ring before retiring
Melvin Gordon is a very solid running back in the NFL, but he will not be content if his quarterback Philip Rivers and his teammate tight end Antonio Gates do not go out on top with a ring.
“Father Time is coming with my boy Gates and Phil,” Gordon said in an appearance on NFL Network. “It would mean a lot to get those guys that ring before they step down, especially Gates. I think we might lose him after this year; you never know with Gates. But it would be love to have him walk away with a ring and put that stamp on his career, so that’s definitely what we want.”
Gordon may have a little wishful thinking, and while it would be nice to see the two of them win a ring, I think the Chargers are still a long way off. What do you think?
