According to the San Diego Union-Tribune, Chargers left tackle Jared Gaither will likely miss this week’s game and could end up being done for the season at some point.
“Indications from inside the organization are that his back malady will keep him out of at least next week’s home against the Tennessee Titans,” wrote the Tribune.
The Chargers are looking on the open market for a replacement tackle since they don’t know if Gaither will play this year.
“The team has not ruled out that Gaither could miss the entire season and remains in the market for a reserve tackle,” the Tribune reported.
