Chargers' Melvin Gordon says quarterback Philip Rivers is 'amazing at what he does'
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon praised veteran quarterback Philip Rivers this weekend. "You know, Phil is Phil. Obviously he is amazing at what he does. Having a player of that caliber makes a complete difference," Gordon said after the Chargers' 13-7 loss to the Saints on Sunday, a game in which Rivers did not play.
What It Means:
Last season, Rivers passed Dan Fouts to become the Chargers' all-time passing yards leader. Despite that, Rivers struggled in 2016, leading the league with 21 interceptions, a career-high. His 60.4 percent completion percentage was the second-worst of his career.
Rivers is the 15th-best fantasy quarterback for 2017 based on our projections. We project him to throw for 31.2 touchdowns and 15.8 interceptions this season.
