Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers warming up

Philip Rivers finished his interview with the Bills.

Philip Rivers has finally made his coaching decision.

Last week, the former Indianapolis Colts quarterback made the decision to interview with the Buffalo Bills for their head coaching position. The 44-year-old quarterback announced his retirement from the NFL earlier this month after coming off the sideline from coaching high school football. His intention was to help the team after Daniel Jones went down with a season-ending injury.

After he went 0-3, he was inactive for the final game of the season and then made it clear that his career was over. “I am (done),” Rivers said on “Up & Adams.”

“I got a son who will be a senior, and I got that St. Michael football team ready to go. We got beat in the semifinals two years in a row,” Rivers said. “So, it’ll be his senior year. My second son will be a ninth grader. They’ll be on the same team together.

If Philip Rivers’ NFL journey continues, it’s not going to be with the Buffalo Bills. Rivers, who spent the past couple of seasons coaching high school football, was rumored to be a real candidate for the position.

However, the former quarterback reportedly took his name out of consideration, The Athletic reported Monday.

The Bills announced Friday that they had interviewed Rivers for their head coaching vacancy. During his retirement, Rivers served as the head football coach at St. Michael Catholic High School in Fairhope, Alabama.

In the meantime, the Bills’ interview process continued through Sunday as they look for their next leader.

McDermott, the second-longest tenured coach in Bills history behind Hall of Famer Marv Levy, was fired after another playoff failure.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.


From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
