The Facts:
On Wednesday, having fully participated in the Chargers' second-to-last off-season coaching session before training camp -- less than five months after having undergone major reconstructive knee surgery, Rivers told Yahoo! Sports' Michael Silver: "If I had to play a game this Sunday, I could."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Rivers tore his ACL in January; to say he's ahead of schedule in his rehab would be like Noah saying it looks a little like rain. Whether he's actually ready for game action this week or not doesn't really matter. His ability to take part in off-season sessions at this point in time, however, is a pretty good indication he'll be ready when it does. ... We'll continue to monitor Rivers' progress and keep you posted, but it's looking very positive.
