The Colts dropped a 23-17 game to the Jaguars that leaves questions looking ahead to a meaningless season finale and the 2026 season

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers yells at the referees during a close contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

While Rivers’s arm is clearly limited, his attitude is not. Long known as one of the league’s most prolific trash talkers, Rivers went off on the referees on Sunday after they blew the whistle on a play when he believed he had gotten the snap off in time.

Most of the fans in attendance at Lucas Oil Stadium for Sunday's game between the Indianapolis Colts and Jacksonville Jaguars will be cheering for Philip Rivers, but some of them will be more meaningful for the veteran quarterback.
