Philip Rivers Cumpleaños, Fecha de Nacimiento

Philip Michael Rivers (born December 8, 1981) is an American former professional football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 18 seasons, primarily with the Chargers franchise. He played college football for the NC State Wolfpack, winning ACC Player of the Year and ACC Athlete of the Year between 2003 and 2004. Rivers was selected fourth overall in the 2004 NFL draft by the New York Giants, who traded him to the San Diego Chargers during the draft.

After spending his first two seasons as a backup, Rivers served as the Chargers' starting quarterback from 2006 to 2019. During his tenure, Rivers received eight Pro Bowl selections while leading the team to six postseason appearances and four division titles. Rivers also helped the franchise win their first playoff game since 1994 and reach the AFC Championship Game during the 2007 season. He joined the Colts in 2020, making a seventh playoff appearance before retiring. Following four years away from the NFL, Rivers re-signed with the Colts near the end of the 2025 season, where he played his final three games.

Rivers retired a second time after the 2025 season, ranking sixth in career passing touchdowns and eighth in career passing yards (previously ranking fifth in both categories as of his first retirement). Both stats remain the highest-ranking among quarterbacks without Super Bowl appearances. He is also second all-time in consecutive regular season starts by a quarterback, having started every regular season game between 2006 and 2020. Rivers is considered among the greatest quarterbacks to have never played in a Super Bowl.
