Colts’ Philip Rivers makes hilarious tackle attempt after Ravens recover fumble

Pardon Philip Rivers for not being the most mobile quarterback in the world, especially at the age of 38. Rivers made a tackle attempt that many football fans can relate to at the end of the first quarter of the Indianapolis Colts game against the Baltimore Ravens.

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor fumbled at the end of a 9-yard run as the strip was caused by Marcus Peters, and she was picked up by safety Chuck Clark. From there, Clark was off to the races on the sideline with only one man to beat – Rivers.

Let’s let Rivers tell how it happened.

Rivers appeared to take an angle to try to stop Clark from scoring the touchdown, but Clark swiveled with his right foot and the quarterback tripped to the ground. Rivers raised his arms as a last ditch effort to trip Clark as Ravens safety rushed him for the score, which evened the game for Baltimore.

Rivers is one of six quarterbacks to throw 400 touchdown passes, but that tackle attempt will be on blooper reels for years to come.
