Indianapolis Colts Summary
Full Transcript
In a surprising turn of events, the Indianapolis Colts announced that they have signed 44-year-old quarterback Philip Rivers from their practice squad to the active 53-man roster, expecting him to start against the Seattle Seahawks.
Rivers, who came out of retirement just days before this announcement, is set to lead the offense in a crucial matchup as the Colts aim to keep their playoff hopes alive. This decision follows the placement of right tackle Braden Smith on injured reserve, which adds to the team's challenges heading into Week 15.
Rivers, an eight-time Pro Bowl participant, is attempting to prove that he can still perform at a high level after a five-year absence from the NFL, as reported by multiple sources including ESPN and CBS Sports.
