NFL Draft 2015: Marcus Mariota Could Determine Philip Rivers' San Diego Future

Five-time Pro Bowl quarterback Philip Rivers has set countless franchise records for the San Diego Chargers over the past decade, but his best contribution to the team this year may be vacating his spot for Oregon’s Marcus Mariota.

With the first round of the NFL draft kicking off on Thursday, talk of a potential Rivers-for-Mariota trade deal is starting to reach fever pitch. As it stands, San Diego could trade its franchise QB to the Tennessee Titans in exchange for the No. 2 overall pick in the draft that would be used to pick up the 21-year-old rookie.
