In case you missed it, yesterday marked the end of an era in California.

After 16 seasons and 228 games, the Los Angeles Chargers and longtime starting QB Philip Rivers have mutually agreed to part ways.

The 38-year old, who is an eight-time Pro Bowler, amassed 4,908 pass completions, 59,271 passing yards, 64.7 pass completion percentage, 397 touchdowns and 198 interceptions with the franchise.

Despite his best days behind him, Rivers believes he still has some gas left in the tank to offer to teams across the league.

“I do feel I have some emotional fire and passion still left,” said Rivers.

“I know I have the passion for the game that I think is going to last my lifetime. And I think I have the ability left to go play at a high level.”

Although he is still motivated to play football, he doesn’t expect his career to last too much longer.

“I can say for certain that if I’m playing, it’s a two-year maximum,” added Rivers.

No word yet on which teams are interested in his services.
