    A stunning return to the NFL, but not the fairytale finish for 44-year Phillip Rivers

    A stunning return to the NFL, but not the fairytale finish for 44-year Phillip Rivers


    After four full seasons and 1800 days retired from the NFL, Rivers almost guided the Indianapolis Colts to a huge win over the Seahawks in Seattle.

    Ahead 16-15 with 18 seconds to play, the Colts were pipped 18-16.

    Rivers added to his touchdown tally in the first half with an eight yard throw to Josh Downs.



    Rivers is sixth on the all-time touchdown list with 422.
