After multiple injuries to the team’s receivers, Patton has been thrust into a contributing role after catching 15 passes for 161 yards and three touchdowns over the past two preseasons. In his third season with the Chargers but his first on an NFL active roster, Patton said he “finally (has) a good feel for the (offensive) scheme and how we like to run our plays.”.....
Patton said he has “pictures and memories” to commemorate his milestone day, but most importantly, he said, his brother and one of his best friends were in attendance. Whatever role he is asked to assume for the rest of the season, Patton says he is prepared. "I’m ready,” Patton said. “I’ve been cooking some things up the past few years, so it’s going to be good to be able to show it.”
