Quarterback Philip Rivers is expected to get interest from NFL teams when free agency starts in a couple of weeks.
However, if Rivers doesn’t receive the offer he’s hoping for or if he ends up deciding to retire, ESPN would like to pursue the 38-year old, per New York Post.
The network plans to attempt to acquire Al Michaels from NBC Sports for “Monday Night Football” after failing to get former Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who landed a monstrous deal with CBS.
If ESPN is able to land Michaels, the plan is to bring in former Colts and Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning.
If Manning says no, Rivers, who parted ways with the Chargers, could be their next option, taking his talents from the football field to the booth.
The limit would not exist with the number of “shoot” and “golly” could would come out of Rivers’ mouth if he was to take a job as a commentator, but it would certainly be a sight to see.
