**Special Edition of the Jack Doyle Podcast** Philip Rivers joins his former teammate Jack Doyle for a special edition of the Jack Doyle Podcast. Philip opens the show by explaining what motivated him to return to the game (0:51) and discusses how his familiarity with the playbook helped make the transition back much easier (7:36).  Philip compares his first start back in Seattle to his very first NFL start, reflecting on the similarities and differences between the two moments (10:43). From there, the conversation shifts from reflection to X's and O's, as the guys break down their favorite routes and concepts in the offense (16:30). To wrap things up, Philip is asked if he thinks he could take Mo Alie-Cox in a game of hoops (22:50) and shares his appreciation on behalf of football fans everywhere for coming back and for the way he’s consistently carried himself throughout his career (24:33).
