The Indianapolis Colts pulled off a shocker this week when they decided to bring Philip Rivers out of retirement. The veteran quarterback had been out of the NFL since 2020 before being signed to Indy's practice squad on Wednesday .
Rivers hasn't played a single snap in nearly five years, but there's a good chance that drought will end on Sunday when the Colts face the Seahawks . The 44-year-old Rivers, who is now the oldest active player in the NFL, could get the start in Seattle because the Riley Leonard is dealing with a knee injury.
It's not often that you see a 44-year-old take the field in an NFL game, but we did just see it happen back 2022 with Tom Brady . The seven-time Super Bowl winner was actually 45 years old during his final season with the Buccaneers .
