Kolar's prognosis improved; Gadsden gets TE1 opportunity.

Kolar's prognosis changed during surgery, preventing the Chargers from placing him on injured reserve as intended. Receiving specialist tight end Oronde Gadsden is the clear-cut starter in the short term and has all the runway to re-enter the TE1 ranks.
