Philip Rivers has passed Dan Fouts to become the San Diego Chargers' all-time leader in passing yards.

Fouts had 43,040 yards in his career and Rivers entered Thursday night's game against the Denver Broncos with 42,916.

After going 18-forf-29 with 178 yards and a touchdown, Rivers now has 43,094 yards in his career.

Trevor Siemian will start for the Denver Broncos against the San Diego Chargers on Thursday night.

Siemian missed last week's game against the Atlanta Falcons with a non-throwing shoulder injury.

He suffered a bruised AC joint in his non-throwing shoulder just before halftime of the Broncos' Week 4 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Rookie Paxton Lynch filled in for Siemian.
