A 44-year-old Philip Rivers is apparently up to the task of trying to save the Colts’ season.
Indianapolis signed the previously retired quarterback, who last appeared in a game five seasons ago, to its practice squad following Daniel Jones’ season-ending Achilles injury last Sunday, according to multiple reports.
Rivers could potentially start a game down the stretch for the Colts (8-5), with backup Riley Leonard week to week with a knee injury.
