The Los Angeles Chargers will move into the new Rams stadium in Inglewood next year. It had long been the expectation that they would do so with Philip Rivers as their quarterback. That now remains an open question as the way the 2019 NFL season has played out has both the quarterback and the team wondering if that would be the best decision for everyone.

According to Chargers beat reporter from The Athletic, Daniel Popper, the opportunity to play in SoFi Stadium as the Chargers quarterback is not a motivating factor for him wanting to return for a 17th season with the Bolts.
