Philip Rivers is headed to Indianapolis. The Colts have agreed to terms on a deal with the veteran quarterback, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport and NFL Network's Judy Battista reported.
That is a ton of money for him but he will be a stud behind that line.
so now the jags will be facing Rivers and Tannehill twice a year.
Man. You gotta look at Indy investing 25 Million in Rivers. They STILL got Brisset on the hook for 21 this year and then they have 6 mil in dead money for luck. That is 52 MILLION in the Cap locked up, JUST on the QB! That's not counting Brian Hoyer's 2 million in dead money when they launch him.

They've got until Monday before they have to pay him 7 million in bonus money.
He'll be gone.

Even if they cut/deal him....it's still at LEAST a 12.5 mil dead cap hit for him, 6 mil for luck, and 2 mil for Hoyer. That's still a 45.5 mil locked up in the QB position, possibly 20 million locked up on players not even on the roster.
