The Colts have officially named Philip Rivers as their starting quarterback for the Week 16 matchup against the 49ers on “Monday Night Football.” Coach Shane Steichen confirmed this decision after Rivers’ return from retirement, where he played in Week 15 against the Seahawks, completing 18 of 27 passes for 120 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Rivers has an impressive 4-0 record against the 49ers throughout his career, though his last victory over them was in 2018. With another week of practice, Rivers aims to build on his surprising performance as he faces a playoff-contending San Francisco team.
