I'm not going to be able to play and all I can do is support my team,.. That's what you do as a teammate; you help your team out. There's still a role that I can play in our success in winning this game. It might not be on the field Sunday, but it could be on the sideline.
Antonio Gates
I think I got Antonio Gates money. I think that was fair enough for me and it's a good situation for me to be here long term.
money fair good situation
They made a decision and they wanted to stick by their decision,.. I didn't feel upset about the situation. I thought it could have been done in different ways, but for the most part I want to move forward.
thought decision feel forward made part situation
It was a clear understanding (that) they wanted me here, and I wanted to be here,.. We're on the same page. I want to be here long-term. I want to be a San Diego Charger, and I'm quite sure something is going to get done.
understanding
We're not far apart,.. The door is definitely open for negotiation, and things are going perfectly fine. I'm quite sure something will get done. I'm here on good faith something will get done.
door faith good open things
No matter what you're doing (working out away from the team), it's nothing like going against Igor (Olshansky),.. I think it will take awhile, but I'm definitely ready to work hard and get back in shape.
work team hard matter working ready
success game support winning play team
I definitely was with the first group today, so that's a good sign.
today good sign
Me not being able to help my teammates was probably the No. 1 thing that was going through my mind (during the game)
mind game thing
Say what you will about pro athletes holding out for more money. Most shouldn't do it, but you've got to admit I had more of a right to than anyone. I was only making 80,000 a year. That's chump change. I could make that playing basketball in Turkey, or in the Major Indoor Lacrosse League. The Chargers know they were wrong. That's why they gave me a new contract.

I know what L.T. Can do,.. I don't need to see L.T. I don't need to see Brees. I want to see the young guys.
