Overview
- Rivers completed a Monday night workout in Indianapolis and, per multiple reporters, threw well as talks with the team continued.
- Several outlets report the Colts have signed Rivers to the practice squad, while others say no agreement has been finalized.
- Daniel Jones tore his Achilles in Week 14, Riley Leonard is week to week with a knee issue, Anthony Richardson remains on injured reserve, and Brett Rypien is available as depth.
- A practice-squad addition would not affect Rivers’ Pro Football Hall of Fame eligibility timeline, but an active-roster contract would reset his five-year clock.
- Indianapolis is 8-5 after three straight losses and faces Seattle next, with Rivers targeted partly because of his past work with Steichen and familiarity with the scheme.
