Philip Rivers is 37 Drue Tranquill Jersey Color Rush , but his level of play, his commitment to playing beyond 2019 and the Chargers’ signing of Tyrod of the quarterback market.Not surprisingly, Chargers General Manager Tom Telesco isn’t ruling anything out.“Pretty happy with our quarterback room,” Telesco said in his pre-draft press conference Monday, via video from the team website. “But you have to [keep an open mind about drafting a quarterback]. . . .You always have to be looking toward the future. That’s just natural with where Philip is. But Philip had a career year last year Mens Drue Tranquill Jersey , and he’s really showing no signs of descending. We’re very happy with Tyrod. We feel like we have two starting-level NFL quarterbacks, which is important for us right now. We have a good football team and now we have two quarterbacks we feel like we can win with, and we also have Cardale [Jones], who we still think has the developmental qualities we like a lot. So it’s a good group right now.”Rivers was an MVP candidate part of last season, completing 68.3 percent of his passes for 4 Cheap Drue Tranquill Jersey ,308 yards with 32 touchdowns and a 105.5 passer rating. He made his eighth Pro Bowl, though he withdrew with an ankle injury.“He’s playing at a really high level right now,” Telesco said. “My expectation is he’s going to be here awhile. I haven’t seen any different.”Rivers is entering his 16th NFL season. He previously has said he wants to play through at least 2020, so he can open the team’s new stadium in September.The Chargers expect to extend Rivers’ deal. He has one year remaining on his current contract, paying him $11 million in base salary this season and counting $23 million against the salary cap.“I’m grateful for each year. I really am. I’m grateful for every year that he’s playing Youth Kellen Winslow Jerseys ,” Telesco said. “But that doesn’t mean we can’t look long term and see what the solution is down the road. But I’m grateful for every year. I don’t know if it was a career year last year, but it was certainly close.” Chargers bring back locker room leader"WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections San Diego Chargers Daily LinksSan Diego Chargers NewsSan Diego Chargers OffseasonSan Diego Chargers HistorySan Diego Chargers HumorChargers PlayersChargers Roster MovesChargers Free Agency NewsBreaking: Chargers re-sign NT Brandon Mebane to 2 year dealNew,22commentsChargers bring back locker room leaderPDTShareTweetShareShareBreaking: Chargers re-sign NT Brandon Mebane to 2 year dealRon Chenoy-USA TODAY SportsTom Telesco and the Los Angeles Chargers are starting free agency in a very similar fashion. Not making splashy moves, but focusing on keeping/bringing in veterans with leadership capabilities to help influence their young talent in the locker room while complementing them on the field. That trend continues with bringing back Brandon Mebane on a 2 year deal.Mebane hasn’t been a game changer on the field, however his presence in the locker room is very valuable. I would assume this is going to be a team friendly deal as well. Beyond his leadership Kellen Winslow Jerseys Stitched , this signing continues the theme of using FA to prevent giant holes from forming, which allows TT and his crew more flexibility to grab the best player available early in the draft, rather than having to reach for positions of need. While I would have liked to see a different name signed at NT, it’s hard to ignore the practicality of this signing and I also don’t think it takes a DT/NT off the table in rounds 1-3.
