DE Isaac Rochell Hopes to Reap
Rewards of a Revamped Lifestyle Following the end of the team’s three-day minicamp Authentic Brandon Mebane Jersey , second-year DE Isaac Rochell sat down with Ricky Henne of Chargers.com to talk about his experiences from the past year and how he feels going into the 2018 season.Rochell admitted that he has been frustrated with himself about spending most of last season on the practice squad instead of playing on Sundays. But instead of staying down on himself, he has taken the lead on changing his lifestyle and outlook for the better, hoping it turns into a better season that includes an increase in playing time and success.According to Rochell, he was at his heaviest last season when he weighted around 280 pounds. Right now, he claims to be closer to 265 pounds. After swtiching to a plant-based diet and adding yoga into his weekly regimen, he feels lighter, leaner, and faster than ever.He told Henne Womens Drew Kaser Jersey , “I just feel better now. When you do yoga and you stretch and you eat right, and you’re doing things to help your body out, you’re able to get in positions that you didn’t know you can get in and you’re not thinking about it. You’re just playing. It just happens.”Rochell played in just three games in 2017. He collected four total tackles with two coming against the New York Jets where he collected a sack of quarterback Bryce Petty and another tackle-for-loss.With the loss of Chris McCain as the third rotational pass rusher, the door is wide open for Rochell to claim the role. Here’s to hoping that body transformation is just what he needed to propel his game to the next level.Philip Rivers Wants an Antonio Gates Reunion It shouldn’t come as a surprise, but Philip Rivers wants Antonio Gates back with the Chargers.According to Jack Wang of the O.C. Register, Rivers would be all for bringing back Gates.With Hunter Henry done for the season after suffering a torn ACL on the first day of OTAs, Gates has been one of the more popular options among Chargers fans. The future Hall of Famer will bring familiarity into the Los Angeles locker room, and a much needed receiving threat. Last season Gates proved there was still something in the tank as he found the end zone three times and caught 30 passes for 316 yards.Plus http://www.chargersfootballauthentics.co...-authentic , the other tight ends on the roster have little to know experience as a receiver. Virgil Green was signed to help block and has 807 receiving yards in his entire career. While Sean Culkin, Braedon Bowman, Cole Hunt, and Ben Johnson have a combined zero catches in their career. Gates may not solve all of the problems the Chargers will have after losing Henry, but it would make Rivers quite happy. The Rivers-Gates connection has been the best in NFL history. The duo has connected on 87 touchdown passes, a record for quarterback-tight end tandems. Could they have one last run in them before Gates (or Rivers) hangs them up?Gates may not be the player he once was, but Rivers doesn’t trust anyone as much as he trusts 85. The Chargers are now in desperate need for a reliable red zone threat and even though he’ll be 38 in a few weeks he can still get open for six.
