"Chargers closer to trading Rivers after reported Mariota workout?"
It's a blockbuster of a trade rumor that just won't go away. Based on Monday's latest developments, the buzz is only going to intensify.
The Tennessee Titans currently holds the No. 2 pick in the first round of the NFL Draft on April 30. The San Diego Chargers hold the 17th pick ... and veteran QB Philip Rivers. Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt served as offensive coordinator in San Diego in 2013 and was a big fan of Rivers.
Last month, Rivers told the San Diego Union-Tribune that he will not re-sign with the club and will instead play out his contract and become a free agent after this season. Rumors have been flying since that the Chargers could move Rivers this offseason, and the Titans and that second overall pick have been a hot target in the rumor mills, the idea being the Chargers would then swoop up Oregon quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota with that pick.
