#2 Antonio Gates
Not bad coming from a guy who didn’t play college football. The Rivers-to-Antonio Gates touchdown combo is now the best in NFL history for a QB and a tight end. Gates has gone to the Pro Bowl 8 times and has been named First Team All-Pro 3 times. He is the all-time franchise leader in receiving yards, receptions and receiving touchdowns. He is the active NFL leader in receiving touchdowns. Gates has revolutionized the tight end position and many current elite NFL tight ends have mirrored his ways. He also has 464 career receiving yards in 10 playoff games.
