2020 NFL team previews: Can Philip Rivers revive his career with the Indianapolis Colts?

You really can't blame a team for being lost and disorganized when their franchise quarterback suddenly retires at age 29, only weeks away from the start on the NFL season.

Andrew Luck did just that to the Indianapolis Colts in 2019, leaving them hanging and without a real long-term plan. Luckily, the team already had a decent quarterback in Jacoby Brissett already on the roster, but it still left them reeling.

This offseason they made a move to temporarily replace Luck by adding Philip Rivers, a 38-year-old quarterback whose entire career had been played with the Chargers thus far.
