While Philip Rivers's contract is up at the end of 2019, he does not want his 16th NFL season to be his last.
"I'm capable enough physically and mentally, there's no question," Rivers said after the Chargers' Week 16 loss to the Oakland Raiders. "Yes, I do want to play football. I do, and that's how I feel deep down as I stand here."
Rivers believes he can play another season in the NFL, but he would have to approach another opportunity with some consideration for his personal life.
"There's a lot of factors," Rivers said.
