Rivers said he is pleased with the progress he's made and thinks he's ahead of the rehabilitation process. He attended the team's offseason workout and was able to jog but couldn’t take any snaps under center or participate at full speed. "I started out with a little jog," Rivers said. "I was going about as hard as I can go today. It feels good. I think I'm ahead, but at least where I need to be right now."

| Chargers | Teammates behind Rivers :: Mon Jan 21, 2008 9:04 pm |
Jay Posner, of the San Diego Union-Tribune, reports San Diego Chargers players were impressed with the performance of QB Philip Rivers (knee) during the AFC Championship Game. Rivers played the game with a sprained medial collateral ligament and partially torn anterior cruciate ligament and will likely need offseason surgery. "I think people should really back off Philip Rivers because I think that's the gutsiest performance that I've ever been around," OG Mike Goff said. "People might yell at him for making a couple interceptions, but you know what, the man's out there on two bad wheels and he's out there playing his heart out. So I think maybe people now will just back off."
