Rivers Passes His Way into NFL History
October 21, 2013 – Philip Rivers, co-owner of D1 Raleigh and D1 Huntsville, passed his way to a victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars and into NFL history. The Chargers quarterback completed his first 14 passes of the game — his first incompletion came with 53 seconds left in the second quarter. Rivers finished 22-of-26 passing for 285 yards and one touchdown. The Chargers defeated the Jaguars 24-6. Rivers surpassed 30,000 yards passing for his career. Rivers became only the 37th quarterback in NFL history to throw for 30,000 yards for his career. The quarterback now is second in franchise history, but he has a ways to go before catching the great Dan Fouts and his 43,040 yards.
