With Chargers cornerback Antonio Cromartie on the trading block for now -- and possibly on the chopping block if the Chargers can’t find someone to take off their hands a guy who avoids contact like a germophobe at Grand Central Station -- the Chargers need to have a backup plan at the position.
As our friends at Rotoworld recently pointed out, Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune firmly believes it will be Antoine Cason.
Cason, a first-round pick in 2008, was yanked from the team’s nickel role in October. But Acee says the team still believes in him over the long haul.
