Womens Kellen Winslow Jersey , no tight end in NFL history had ever gained 300 receiving yards in the year he turned 38 or older. This season, two tight ends have done so.Antonio Gates, the Chargers’ 38-year-old tight end, has 312 receiving yards this season. And Saints tight end Benjamin Watson, who will turn 38 next week, has 337 receiving yards this season. They’re the two oldest tight ends in NFL history to top the 300-yard mark in a season.Only 10 times in NFL history has a player had 300 or more receiving yards in the year he turned 38 or older. Five of those 10 times http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-lance-alworth-jersey , that player was Jerry Rice.

Not making splashy moves, but focusing on keeping/bringing in veterans with leadership capabilities to help influence their young talent in the locker room while complementing them on the field. That trend continues with bringing back Brandon Mebane on a 2 year deal.Mebane hasn’t been a game changer on the field, however his presence in the locker room is very valuable. I would assume this is going to be a team friendly deal as well. Beyond his leadership, this signing continues the theme of using FA to prevent giant holes from forming, which allows TT and his crew more flexibility to grab the best player available early in the draft Joey Bosa Jersey , rather than having to reach for positions of need. While I would have liked to see a different name signed at NT, it’s hard to ignore the practicality of this signing and I also don’t think it takes a DT/NT off the table in rounds 1-3.
