It was just a little over 4 months ago that QB Phillip Rivers had major knee surgery and as he promised, he is doing well and ahead of schedule. He is able to run at full speed and is taking snaps with the first team offense at light practices.
The Chargers are being careful with him but are happy with his recovery.
