Remaining starter for Week 16
Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Rivers will draw another start during Monday Night Football against the 49ers in Week 16 on Dec. 22, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rivers made his first start since January 2021 during Indianapolis' narrow 18-16 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday in which he completed 18 of 27 pass attempts for 120 yards, one touchdown and one interception while losing five yards on his only carry. While the 44-year-old signal-caller's numbers were excessively modest, he piloted the Colts offense with prudence and kept the team competitive in a difficult road environment. He'll have an opportunity to build on that production at home next week…read more

Makes first start since 2020 season
Rivers completed 18 of 27 pass attempts for 120 yards, one touchdown and one interception while losing five yards on his only carry in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Rivers performed about as well as you could expect Sunday from a player coming out of retirement after nearly a five-year absence. The 44-year-old attempted short, safe passes while keeping the Colts competitive against a daunting opponent. Rivers was finally asked to take a shot down the field in the closing moments of the contest in order to get his club into range for a game-winning field goal, but he airmailed his target for his only interception. It was a valiant effort from Rivers given…read more

Signed ahead of expected start
The Colts signed Rivers off their practice squad Saturday.
Analysis: The move puts Rivers on track to play Sunday against the Seahawks, with Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reporting earlier Saturday that the 44-year-old is expected to start in Week 15, while rookie sixth-round pick Riley Leonard serves as the backup. The Colts have yet to confirm that Rivers will start, but if he does, he would be making his first NFL appearance since Jan. 9, 2021.

Looks set to start at QB
Rivers will start for the Colts against the Seahawks on Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He will be activated from the practice squad ahead of Saturday's game, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Following Daniel Jones' season-ending torn Achilles injury in Week 14, the Colts signed Rivers to the practice squad Wednesday, and the 44-year-old split first-team reps with rookie Riley Leonard during Week 15 prep. Per Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis, head coach Shane Steichen noted after Friday's practice that the team was "working through" a decision on who to start Sunday, and it seems the Colts will go with the veteran quarterback, who last saw action in the 2020 season with…read more

Week 15 starting QB TBD
Colts head coach Shane Steichen noted Friday that a decision on who will start at QB in Sunday's game against the Seahawks (between Rivers and Riley Leonard) has yet to be made, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Analysis: "We're working through that," Steichen said Friday of the team's Week 15 QB plans. Per Stephen Holder of ESPN.com, Rivers has looked good and moved around well during practice, while Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis relays that Leonard took some starting reps this week. For his part, James Boyd of The Athletic believes that Rivers will get the nod, a notion put forth by Holder on Thursday. In any case, in order for Rivers to be available as either a starter or backup versus Seattle, he…read more

In play to start this week
Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Wednesday that he'll wait until the end of the week before deciding between Rivers and Riley Leonard (knee) as the starting quarterback for Sunday's game in Seattle, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Rivers, 44, hasn't played in an NFL game since Jan. 9, 2021, and he even acknowledged Wednesday that he's heavier now than he was at the time he stepped away from football, per James Boyd of The Athletic. Steichen mentioned the need to get "back into football shape" but didn't explicitly shut the door on Rivers starting immediately. It's a big ask, but the team doesn't seem to have much confidence in Leonard, who entered the season as a third-stringer and suffered a PCL injury after replacing…read more

Officially joins Colts' practice squad
Rivers officially joined the Colts' practice squad Wednesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Rivers, who had retired after the 2020 season, bolsters a Colts QB corps that has been hit hard by injuries. Daniel Jones is out for the season with an Achilles' injury, Anthony Richardson (orbital) remains on IR, and Riley Leonard is dealing with a knee injury ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks. For now, Brett Rypien is the healthiest option on the team's active roster, but Stephen Holder of ESPN.com relayed Wednesday via coach Shane Steichen that Rivers will be evaluated as the week…read more

Joining Indy's practice squad
Rivers agreed Tuesday to sign with the Colts' practice squad, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rivers turned 44 years old earlier this week and is nearly five full years removed from his last NFL action, but the eight-time Pro Bowler apparently made enough of an impression during his workout Monday for the quarterback-needy Colts to bring him back into the fold. With Daniel Jones (Achilles) lost for the season and Anthony Richardson (orbital) lacking a clear timeline to return, rookie Riley Leonard (knee) is the next man up for Indianapolis, but his availability for Sunday's game in…read more

Auditioning for Colts
Rivers will work out with the Colts on Tuesday and could sign with their practice squad, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Colts suffered a significant blow to their playoff hopes in a Week 14 loss to the Jaguars when Daniel Jones suffered a torn Achilles. Riley Leonard (knee) is projected to take over as the starter, though the team is surveying all potential options to fortify their quarterback room. While he had an excellent career, Rivers hasn't played in the NFL since 2020 and has most recently been the coach of a high school football team. Rivers may join the team as insurance, but it's difficult to…read more

Comeback not ruled out
Rivers said Tuesday that he hasn't completely ruled out a return to the NFL, despite announcing his retirement in January, Sam Farmer of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: While the report notes that a potential Rivers comeback isn't imminent, the quarterback is aiming to get in shape just in case an opportunity arises for a late-season return to an NFL team. The possibility of Rivers pursuing a return to the field predictably became a source of speculation after the Colts lost Carson Wentz to a foot injury that could sideline him early on this season. At least for the time being, the Colts seem content to see what that have in No. 2 signal-caller Jacob Eason…read more

Decides to retire
Rivers announced Tuesday that he will retire from professional football, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports. "It's just time," Rivers said.
Analysis: The 39-year-old Rivers ends his 17-year career ranked fifth in NFL history in both passing yards (63,440) and touchdown passes (421). After a lengthy stint with the Chargers, Rivers helped lead Indianapolis to the playoffs in his lone season with the Colts, compiling 4,169 yards through the air and a 24:11 TD:INT. With Jacoby Brissett set to become an unrestricted free agent in March, 2020 fourth-round pick Jacob Eason is the only signal-caller on the Colts' books for the upcoming campaign, but…read more

Facing uncertain future
Colts GM Chris Ballard plans to speak with Rivers in February, Stephen Holder of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ballard believes Rivers can still play, but it isn't clear the quarterback will want to stick around for another season, nor is it clear the Colts want him back. The 39-year-old put up respectable passing stats in 2020, but he offers nothing as a runner and is well past his prime, so the Colts might shift their focus to finding a younger QB. The team should have a better idea before free agency begins in March.

Can't complete comeback in Buffalo
Rivers completed 27 of 46 passes for 309 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 27-24 wild-card round loss to the Bills. He also threw a two-point conversion and rushed once for minus-1 yard.
Analysis: Rivers directed the Colts' offense past midfield on each of the team's three first-quarter possessions, but those drives all stalled soon after, resulting in just three total points. He led a touchdown drive capped by a one-yard Jonathan Taylor run on the next possession but just missed Michael Pittman in the back of the end zone on 4th-and-goal with a chance to grab a 17-7 edge on the ensuing drive and ended up trailing 14-10 heading into the locker room after Buffalo scored just before…read more

Practices fully
Rivers (toe) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Analysis: Rivers' listing comes as no surprise, as he hasn't been in any real danger of missing games the past several weeks while he continues to manage a turf toe injury. With the veteran quarterback officially in the clear for Saturday's wild-card game in Buffalo, he'll be taking aim at a Bills defense that allowed an average of 232.9 passing yards per game and 23 passing touchdowns during the regular season.

Subdued performance in win
Rivers completed 17 of 27 passes for 164 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the Colts' 28-14 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He also netted minus-2 yards on two rushes.
Analysis: With rookie running back Jonathan Taylor exploding for a career-best 253 rushing yards and two touchdowns, Rivers didn't have to shoulder much of a load. The 17-year veteran did connect with T.Y. Hilton for his one touchdown pass, capping off the Colts' opening drive. However, there wasn't much to write home about from that point forward, but Indianapolis now turns its attention to an extremely tough wild-card-round assignment in the form of the Bills next weekend. Meanwhile, Rivers powered…read more

Puts in full practice
Rivers (toe) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Rivers was given Wednesday's practice off while he continues to manage a turf toe injury, but his return in full capacity a day later clears the way for him to start Week 17 versus the Jaguars. The Colts will need a victory over Jacksonville and a loss by either the Titans, Ravens, Browns or Dolphins to secure a playoff berth, so Rivers won't be a candidate to receive rest in the season finale unless Indianapolis turns the game into a blowout in the second half.

Sits out practice Wednesday
Rivers (toe) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: As the veteran quarterback continues to manage a turf toe injury, Wednesday absences from practice have become the norm. With the Colts still in playoff contention and needing to take care of business Sunday against the Jaguars, Rivers will almost certainly be cleared to play ahead of the Week 17 contest.

Takes foot off gas vs. Steelers
Rivers completed 22 of 35 pass attempts for 270 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Rivers moved the offense efficiently in the first half and threw a 42-yard touchdown pass to Zach Pascal to help his side build a 14-point lead at the break. Unfortunately, he couldn't get it going in the second half as the Colts failed to score on their last five drives, including one that ended in an interception. Rivers came into the game with a stellar 6:0 TD:INT over his previous three games and will look to finish the regular season on a high note in next Sunday's meeting with the hapless…read more

Back to practicing fully
Rivers (toe) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Rivers' absence at practice Wednesday was attributed to the turf toe injury he's been managing for several weeks, but his return to full activity a day later suggests he was merely getting some maintenance to begin the week. The veteran quarterback looks well on his way to making his 239th consecutive regular-season start Sunday in Pittsburgh.

Throws pair of touchdowns
Rivers completed 22 of 28 pass attempts for 228 yards and two touchdowns in Week 15 against the Texans.
Analysis: Rivers worked efficiently to lead the Colts to victory. He recorded multiple touchdowns for the fifth consecutive week, both of which went to Zach Pascal. While many of his attempts were to short areas of the field, Rivers did showcase some arm strength on long completions to Pascal and T.Y. Hilton, the longest of which went for 41 yards. He'll look to maintain his touchdown streak in Week 16 against the Steelers.

Good to go this week
Rivers (toe) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: Rivers continues to manage a toe issue, but despite his absence from practice Wednesday, the QB's status for Sunday's game against the Texans wasn't in doubt. He'll take aim this weekend at a Houston defense that was picked apart by Mitchell Trubisky (267 passing yards and three TDs/zero picks) in the team's 36-7 loss to the Bears in Week 14.

He also delivered his third game with multiple touchdowns and zero interceptions to take his TD:INT to 9:2 over the last four games. Rivers notably continued his growing rapport with T.Y. Hilton and also benefited from the team's rushing attack generating 212 yards on the day. The veteran is in full command of an offense that is finally humming and should face…read more

Dodges injury report
Rivers does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Analysis: Rivers missed practice Wednesday due to the plantar plate rupture in his toe that's plagued him since late November, but he managed to close out the week with back-to-back full practices. The veteran signal-caller may have to make due without standout left tackle Anthony Castonzo (knee), who is listed as questionable to play in Las Vegas, but as a consolation he'll get to take on a Raiders secondary missing both Jeff Heath (concussion) and Damon Arnette (concussion).

Rivers (toe) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Kevin Bowen of 1075thefan.com reports.
Analysis: Rivers has dealt with a plantar plate rupture in his toe since Nov. 23, and the issue led to an absence from Wednesday's practice, so it's encouraging to see him back in action without restrictions. The veteran quarterback was never in real danger of missing Sunday's game against the Raiders, but a full practice session Thursday solidifies the notion that he'll be a go this weekend.

Analysis: If Rivers follows a similar practice regimen to last week, he'll be a limited participant Thursday after an absence one day prior. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Rivers has been playing through a plantar plate rupture in his toe, an injury that is considered to be worse than turf toe. Consequently, Rivers likely will continue to devote much of his focus on treatment and only get on the practice field when necessary with the Colts in the midst of a playoff push.

Hilton and Jonathan Taylor for touchdowns, giving him a 7:2 TD:INT over his last three games. Rivers has also averaged 289.3 yards per game over that span and will look to continue his recent excellence in a favorable matchup with the Raiders next Sunday.

Offseason toe surgery likely
Rivers will continue to play through a plantar plate rupture in his toe during Sunday's game at Houston, but the quarterback is expected to require offseason surgery to address the injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Throughout his tenure with the Chargers, Rivers was no stranger to playing at less than 100 percent health, and that trend is set to continue in his first season in Indianapolis after he picked up the painful toe injury in the Colts' Week 11 win over the Packers. According to Rapoport, Rivers' injury is more serious than turf toe, an issue which normally forces players to miss time. Because Rivers isn't reliant on mobility, he likely won't be affected as much as a typical skill-position player,…read more

Meanwhile, Rivers' teammate, Quenton Nelson, suggested Thursday that the veteran signal-caller is "playing with a really bad problem with his foot."

Plenty of volume in blowout loss
Rivers completed 24 of 42 pass attempts for 295 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Week 12 against the Titans.
Analysis: Rivers and the Colts were stuck playing from behind as the Titans offense easily moved down the field for the entire first half. As a result, he topped 40 pass attempts for the fourth time this season and fell just short of topping 300 yards. While he was able to toss touchdown passes of 11 and five yards, Jacoby Brissett was brought in on the goal line to score two touchdowns of his own. Rivers should have a chance for another high-paced shootout in Week 13 against the Texans.

Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Rivers looked good in his return to practice Friday, and coach Frank Reich said he didn't anticipate the toe being an issue for the 38-year-old in the Week 12 contest.

Toe soreness lingering
Coach Frank Reich said Monday that Rivers is dealing with a sore toe, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports. "We'll see how [Rivers] responds this week," Reich noted.
Analysis: The veteran quarterback managed to stay in for most of Sunday's narrow win over the Packers, but he clearly was hobbled by injury late in the game. It doesn't currently look as though Rivers is in any danger of missing time, but the extent of his participation in Wednesday's practice will be worth monitoring.

Leads Colts to another win
Rivers completed 24 of 36 passes for 288 yards, three touchdowns and one interception in Week 11 against the Packers.
Analysis: Rivers went toe-to-toe with Aaron Rodgers, nearly logging his second consecutive 300-yard effort. Unlike the previous game, Rivers also threw for three touchdowns that went for 45, 17, and six yards. He spread the ball out to all of his pass-catching weapons, as no player received more than six targets and seven players commanded at least three targets. Rivers will look to keep his strong form as he and the Colts will draw a rematch against the Titans in Week 12.

Stellar, mistake-free in win
Rivers completed 29 of 39 passes for 308 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in the Colts' 34-17 win over the Titans on Thursday night.
Analysis: Rivers parlayed the stellar protection he received from his offensive line -- he was sacked once and hit just twice overall -- to put together his third 300-yard effort of the campaign. After the Colts gave up the ball on downs on their first drive, Rivers helped lead them to points on each of their remaining first-half possessions, and despite Indianapolis falling short on another fourth down to cap a 15-play march early in the third quarter, the veteran quarterback was able to subsequently…read more

Rivers completed 25 of 43 passes for 227 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in the Colts' 24-10 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: Following back-to-back, three-touchdown efforts, Rivers fell back to earth against a tough Ravens defense. The veteran quarterback was held without a touchdown for only the second time this season, and a total of five Indianapolis drives ended in either punts (four) or on downs (one). Rivers was playing without T.Y. Hilton (groin) and also lost Jack Doyle to a concussion in the first quarter, so in fairness, he was playing with a depleted pass-catching corps.

He responded with his best yardage output of the season and connected with three different receivers for his first multi-touchdown effort in a Colts uniform. The veteran came in with a poor TD:INT of 4:5 and hadn't topped 250 passing yards since Week 1, so this was a positive sign for fantasy managers that stuck with him through the poor start. He'll use the upcoming bye week…read more

Team facilities reopening
Rivers and the Colts can return to team facilities Friday afternoon with additional test results for COVID-19 coming back negative
Analysis: The team's facilities were shut down for the morning after four members of the organization showed positive test results, but the additional testing came back negative, clearing the facility to be reopened. The Colts game against the Bengals on Sunday will be played as scheduled, barring further developments.

Practice facility closed
Rivers and the Colts won't be able to practice in the near future, as the team shut down its facilities due to multiple positive tests for COVID-19 within the organization.
Analysis: The team will shift to a virtual setup while in the process of confirming the positive results. The Colts are the latest team to have their schedule put in jeopardy due to the pandemic, as the Falcons also had an assistant coach test positive this week. Indianapolis' game against Cincinnati on Sunday is in danger of being delayed or postponed until the situation is settled.

Remains starter
Colts head coach Frank Reich said Monday that Rivers will remain the team's starting quarterback, Mike Wells of ESPN.com reports. "No consideration of [replacing Rivers with backup Jacoby Brissett]," Reich said. "Philip is our quarterback."
Analysis: Rivers' job security was called into question after he turned in a dismal outing in Sunday's 32-23 loss to the Browns, as the 38-year-old completed 21 of 33 attempts for 243 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown. Rivers was also penalized for intentional grounding in the end zone, resulting in a safety. Though he already has a pair of two-interception games under his belt this season, Rivers has at least fared well in terms of passing efficiency,…read more

Commits two turnovers in loss
Rivers completed 21 of 33 pass attempts for 243 yards and two interceptions during Sunday's 32-23 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Rivers threw a pick-six on the first drive of the third quarter and later added another interception as his team looked to cut the lead to two in the fourth. It was the poorest performance of the season for Rivers, who had led his team to three straight wins while committing just one turnover in that stretch. Rivers notably displayed an improved connection with T.Y. Hilton in this one and will look to bounce back in a more favorable matchup next Sunday against the Bengals.

Uninspiring in win
Rivers completed 16 of 29 passes for 190 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 4 against Chicago.
Analysis: The Colts played from ahead for the majority of the contest, meaning Rivers and the passing attack didn't need to be aggressive. Rivers' touchdown came on the team's first offensive possession, when he connected with Mo Alie-Cox for a 13-yard score. From there, Rivers orchestrated four drives that ended with field goals and no more trips to the end zone. One positive is that Rivers has taken care of the ball, throwing zero interceptions in the past two weeks. He should be in for a positive…read more

Racks up milestones in win
Rivers completed 17 of 21 passes for 217 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-7 win over the Jets.
Analysis: With the Colts' defense accounting for 14 points on its own thanks to two pick-sixes and a safety, Rivers wasn't called on to do too much after finding Mo Alie-Cox for a TD in the second quarter. Still, his production was enough to move him up the all-time rankings in a number of categories: he's the sixth QB in league history with 400 touchdown passes, the sixth with over 60,000 passing yards, and he passed Dan Marino for fifth in career completions, needing only 20 more to reach 5,000.

Produces lackluster numbers
Rivers completed 19 of 25 pass attempts for 214 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 28-11 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Although Rivers managed a respectable average of 8.6 yards per attempt against a vulnerable Vikings secondary, he finished with just 25 attempts as the Colts relied on the running game to control the win. He threw a short touchdown pass to Zach Pascal to add a slight boost to his fantasy production, but he still finished with lackluster numbers overall and now has a 2:3 TD:INT through two games. Rivers will enjoy a favorable matchup next Sunday against the Jets and will look to jumpstart his…read more

Shaky in Colts debut
Rivers completed 36 of 46 passes for 363 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Week 1 against the Jaguars.
Analysis: Rivers racked up yards and attempts as the Colts attempted to make a comeback. His lone touchdown pass came in the second quarter on an eight-yard pass to Nyheim Hines. However, he also threw two interceptions, including one late in the fourth quarter that was a major blow to the team's rally. Rivers will look to bounce back in the Colts' Week 2 matchup against the Vikings.

Looks sharp in scrimmage
Rivers was 19-for-28 passing in Monday's scrimmage at Lucas Oil Stadium. He targeted T.Y. Hilton for five receptions and has been frequently looking for running backs and tight ends in the passing game, Kevin Bowen of 93.5 FM The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Analysis: While it's hard to read too much into a scrimmage, reports on Rivers in training camp have been positive so far. He appears to be building a rapport with Hilton, though he didn't particularly target any other receivers in Monday's scrimmage. Rivers has been seen throwing a high percentage of his passes on shorter routes to running backs and tight ends, which could be a sign of a focus on taking what the defense gives him after his turnover issues last season (20 interceptions).

Could stay in Indy past 2020
Coach Frank Reich is optimistic Rivers will play more than one season for the Colts, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
Analysis: Rivers had one of his worst seasons in 2019 and then signed a one-year, $25 million contract with Indianapolis. While both factors may hint at a short relationship, it sounds like the Colts will try to keep Rivers around if he rebounds in his age-38 season ahead. Already boasting an elite offensive line, the team added USC wideout Michael Pittman and Wisconsin running back Jonathan Taylor in the second round of last month's draft. A better running game than the one he had in Los Angeles could…read more

Familiar with Indy offense
Coach Frank Reich believes Rivers will know "80-to-85 percent" of the Colts' offense before he even walks in the door, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Reich points to the 38-year-old's experience and intelligence as clear assets, even mentioning that he came to prefer Rivers over Tom Brady after watching tape of both veteran quarterbacks. There's also an element of familiarity, as Reich was the Chargers' offensive coordinator in 2014 and 2015 -- a two-year stretch in which Rivers averaged 4,539 passing yards, 30 touchdowns and 15.5 interceptions while completing 66.3 percent of his throws for 7.4 YPA.

Headed for Indy
Rivers and the Colts have reached an agreement on a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Rivers is slated to earn roughly $25 million in 2020. With that, the 38-year-old will take over the Colts' starting QB job from Jacoby Brissett. Rivers is coming off a 2019 campaign in which he threw for 4,615 yards with 23 TDs and 20 picks in 16 games for the Chargers.

Working toward Indy deal?
Rivers is talking with the Colts, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: This has been a steady rumor throughout the offseason, with the Colts hoping to upgrade on Jacoby Brissett but not necessarily desperate to do so, i.e., they'll only sign a veteran QB if the price is right. Rivers has history with Colts head coach Frank Reich and offensive coordinator Nick Sirianni, both of whom worked for the Chargers for multiple seasons.

Won't return to Chargers
Rivers will become an unrestricted free agent in March and will not re-sign with the Chargers.
Analysis: The Chargers announced the decision in a press release, suggesting both parties agreed to go their separate ways. Rivers showed obvious signs of decline in 2019, but he should draw interest as a starter on the open market, with potential destinations including Tampa Bay, Indianapolis and Chicago. The 38-year-old quarterback spent 16 years with the Chargers, including 14 consecutive seasons in which he started all 16 games.

Unlikely to stay with Chargers
Jay Glazer of FOX Sports said Monday during an appearance on "The Herd" with Colin Cowherd that he believes the Chargers have "moved on" from Rivers.
Analysis: The 38-year-old quarterback is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on the heels of a 5-11 season in which he tossed 20 interceptions. The Chargers otherwise have a fairly young roster that includes some premium talent, and they even have an insurance plan with fellow quarterback Tyrod Taylor under contract through 2020. Perhaps sensing the writing on the wall, Rivers recently relocated his family from San Diego to Florida. He already said he doesn't intend to retire, so the move…read more

Moves to Florida
Rivers, who had been living in San Diego, has relocated "permanently" to Florida in order to be closer to his family, Chris Mortensen and Adam Schefter of ESPN report. "What this means football-wise is to be determined but it was time for us to move back closer to home," said Rivers, who is slated to become a free agent this offseason.
Analysis: While there's a very real possibility that the 38-year-old has played his last game for the Chargers, Rivers -- who was backed up by Tyrod Taylor this past season -- does plan to play somewhere in 2020.

Tosses two touchdowns in finale
Rivers completed 31 of 46 passes for 281 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions during Sunday's 31-21 loss to Kansas City. He added a five-yard run. After the game, Rivers said that he has no plans to retire, but he may play with another team in 2020, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Chargers were down by two scores in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter when Rivers hooked up with Hunter Henry for an eight-yard touchdown pass to try to spark a rally. Expect plenty of conjecture in the coming months as to whether that will be Rivers' last touchdown as a Charger. If so, it was a rough season to close out his tenure for the veteran quarterback. He threw 20 picks for the third time in his career while his 23 touchdowns were his fewest since 2007, his second season as…read more

Practicing fully
Rivers (right thumb) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: The team listed Rivers as limited on Wednesday's practice report, but the veteran QB is now in line to start Sunday's season finale for the 5-10 Chargers. Meanwhile, ESPN's Eric D. Williams notes that Rivers -- who's in the final year of his contract -- is inclined to continue playing in 2020, but the 38-year-old signal caller plans to take some time after the season to discuss that possibility with both his family and the folks who run the Chargers.

Still looking to play in 2020
Rivers reiterated Monday he'd like to play next season, Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com reports. "I'm capable enough physically and mentally, there's no question."
Analysis: Rivers may want to suit up for his 17th professional season, but it's unclear if the Chargers will bring back the 38-year-old, particularly after a downtrodden year which will see Rivers likely post the worst TD:INT (21:18) of his career. Veteran option Tyrod Taylor and 2019 fifth-round pick Easton Stick have both been on the 53-man roster all season, but neither immediately sticks out as long-term answers at the position. With a current 5-10 record, the team could also be in a position to…read more

No touchdowns in loss
Rivers completed 27 of 39 attempts for 279 yards in the 24-17 loss Sunday to the Raiders.
Analysis: For the first time in Rivers' 16-year career, the veteran posted three consecutive three-and-outs to begin the game, foreshadowing what was inevitably going to be a downtrodden afternoon. He did ultimately throw for at least 270 yards for the 11th time this season, but two one-yard touchdown runs from Melvin Gordon evaporated any sort of positive fantasy performance for Rivers. He also injured his throwing-hand thumb after comically whiffing on an end-around block in the first half, but the…read more

Commits four turnovers
Rivers completed 28 of 39 pass attempts for 307 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions Sunday against the Vikings. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Rivers threw an interception in the second quarter before losing a fumble -- which was returned for a touchdown -- on the very next drive. He also threw interceptions in his final two possessions of the game as his team suffered one of its worst defeats in recent memory. Rivers is among the league leaders in passing yards, but his 21:18 TD:INT leaves a lot to be desired.

Tosses three TDs in rout
Rivers completed 16 of 22 passes for 314 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 45-10 rout of the Jaguars.
Analysis: The quarterback celebrated his 38th birthday in style while leading the Chargers to a season-high 525 yards of offense, and his present to himself was a new personal record -- his 84-yard connection with Austin Ekeler early in the third quarter was the longest TD pass of his career, although Ekeler did most of the work. Rivers has had an up and down campaign, but he's still well on his way to his seventh straight 4,000-yard season and 12th straight with 25 or more touchdowns.

Efficient despite loss
Rivers completed 20 of 29 pass attempts for 265 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: It was an ugly beginning to Sunday's contest, as the Broncos jumped out to an early 14-0 lead in part thanks to Rivers' eighth interception in the last three games, a misguided screen attempt directly at defensive tackle Dre'Mont Jones for an easy pick. Rivers quieted his critics from there, relying on an efficient ground attack from Austin Ekeler and Melvin Gordon to open up space via the play-action pass. As he's done much of the season, Rivers turned to wide receiver Mike Williams the few…read more

Potential to be benched
Rivers could be benched for backup Tyrod Taylor if he has another subpar performance, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: In the two outings before the Chargers' Week 12 bye, Rivers threw a combined seven interceptions, the worst two-game span of his career. The stretch doubled his number of picks on the season to 14, which is his most since he tossed 21 in 2016. The team sits at 4-7 as well, but with a win Sunday in Denver, Rivers could set his side up for one of the team's classic late-season playoff pushes. On the other side of the coin, coach Anthony Lynn won't rule out a change under center if Rivers' poor…read more

Throws four picks in narrow defeat
Rivers completed 28 of 52 passes for 353 yards, one touchdown and four interceptions in Monday night's 24-17 loss to the Chiefs. He also threw a successful two-point conversion.
Analysis: Rivers threw for a season high in yards, but he's more importantly now turned the ball over four times in consecutive games. He was picked off on back-to-back drives during both the first and second halves Monday, with his final interception coming in Kansas City's end zone with 18 seconds left. That turnover sealed another tough loss for the Chargers, who will now embark on their bye week as Rivers looks to regroup from a couple rough performances.

Mistake-filled effort in loss
Rivers completed 17 of 31 passes for 207 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions in the Chargers' 26-24 loss to the Raiders on Thursday. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Rivers' night was about as ugly as his line would imply, even as he had his positive moments. Two of those came on touchdown passes to Hunter Henry and Austin Ekeler in the second and fourth quarter, respectively. However, the lowlights were also in plentiful supply, beginning with a 56-yard pick-six by the Raiders' Erik Harris just past the midway point of the first quarter that extended Oakland's lead to 10-0 at the time. Rivers then failed to notch even a single completion after getting the…read more

Rivers completed 21 of his 28 passes for 294 yards in Sunday's win over the Packers. He did not throw a touchdown or an interception.
Analysis: While Rivers was marvelous orchestrating the offense in Sunday's shocking blowout, the veteran quarterback failed to throw either a touchdown or interception in a game for the first time since 2016, instead relying on running back Melvin Gordon and kicker Michael Badgley to score points when the team got into the red zone.
