The rumors and rumblings about Philip Rivers to the Indianapolis Colts are slowly coming to a head. Per Stephen Holder, the Colts beat writer for The Athletic, “everything indiciates (Rivers) is their No. 1 target.”
Let me elaborate...Per sources, the Colts indeed continue talks w free agent QB Philip Rivers. No deal yet, but everything indicates he is their No. 1 target. Nothing is ever done until it's done (see: Josh McDaniels), so the Colts have considered alternatives as well. Stay tuned https://t.co/fTdM4D5NXu

Obviously there is no deal done and if you’re the Colts, as Holder mentions in the above tweet, they want to play this carefully to avoid another Josh McDaniels situation from two years ago when he tentatively agreed to become their next head coach before pulling out of the agreement at the last second.
