The 2025 season started off like a dream with the Indianapolis Colts sitting at 7-1 through their first eight games. It's all come crashing down over the past month though, as the Colts are now 8-6 and on the outside of the playoff picture.
Things were already trending south before the season-ending injury to Daniel Jones, but that certainly hasn't helped matters. With Jones done for the year and Anthony Richardson out with an orbital injury that he sustained earlier in the year, the Colts opted to sign 44-year-old Philip Rivers, who hadn't played a snap in the regular season for nearly five years until this past weekend.
