I think Winston will have a good year for the record. But I have posted before about the limited alternatives to Winston should the Bucs look to go a different direction after this season. Basically my contention was that there were no options other than drafting a QB and using that valuable pick that you really need for a DE or OL. And so since I posted that, I'll have to put in a corollary that perhaps there might be one minute glimmer of another possibility .....
Philip Rivers
Not planning to sign extension
QBLos Angeles Chargers
August 16, 2019
Rivers no longer is expected to sign a contract extension, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports.
ANALYSIS
Reports throughout the offseason suggested Rivers would sign a new contract before Week 1, with the 37-year-old quarterback stating his intention to play at least one more season after 2019. This doesn't mean he's changed his mind, but it does suggest he'll wait until the offseason to discuss terms. Rivers is entering the final season of a four-year deal, suddenly looking at some question marks around him with Melvin Gordon (contract holdout), Keenan Allen (ankle) and starting left tackle Russell Okung (pulmonary embolism) all missing from practice.
