A few surgeries

As typical in the weeks immediately following the NFL season, several Chargers underwent operations to repair injuries suffered during the season. Eight players have already undergone surgeries.

That group includes defensive tackle Ryon Bingham (shoulder, 4-6 week recovery); Clary (shoulder, 3-4 months); tight end Antonio Gates (toe, 4-6 months); guard Mike Goff (knees, 4-6 weeks); Pinnock (knee, 4-6 months); quarterback Philip Rivers (knee, 4-6 months); linebacker Brandon Siler (shoulder, 4-6 weeks); and center Cory Withrow (knee, 2-4 weeks).

Others who will have operations but have not yet scheduled them include tackle Marcus McNeill (shoulder), linebacker Shawne Merriman (knee) and defensive tackle Jamal Williams (knees).

Did not expect to hear about some of these injuries. It explains alot about Marcus McNeill and his "softmore slump".
