It’s not looking good for San Diego Chargers’ favorite, Philip Rivers. Yesterday we found out Eric Weddle was disappointed by the Chargers lack of enthusiasm to sign a new deal. It then emerged from teammate LaDainian Tomlinson that QB Philip Rivers has lost confidence in the team.

Speaking to the NFL Network, Tomlinson revealed a lot about where Rivers is at mentally:

NFL.com reporter Gregg Rosenthal added the following to the conversation:

“You never want to trade your franchise quarterback. You know that’s never the case. However, in this situation, they might have no choice but to do so. Because I don’t know if Philip (Rivers) wants to be there anymore. I think he has lost confidence in the organization. He’s seen a lot of changes going on and the L.A. thing is valid. Him not wanting to go to L.A. is very valid. The parts around him keep on moving. The receiver corps keeps on changing. Eddie Royal is now gone,” Tomlinson noted. “We talked about this before with Vincent Jackson leaving years ago. There are so many parts that are leaving. When Philip is looking around in that locker room and he doesn’t see anyone that he’s familiar with other than Antonio Gates. Now to that point, Antonio Gates next year is a free agent, Eric Weddle is gonna be up. Next year the Chargers have a lot of decisions to make with a lot of key guys. So Philip could be looking at the situation and thinking ‘we’re not close to winning a championship anytime soon.”

Stay tuned to see how this one plays out. It’s looking like the Chargers may be in some trouble, but hey, maybe they see something we don’t.
