San Diego Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has insisted that the club's location will have no bearing on his future with the team.
The Chargers have been touted with a move to Los Angeles in the near future, while the 33-year-old is entering the final year of his contract with Mike McCoy's men.
However, Rivers is adamant that a move away from San Diego would not act as a barrier to him signing a long-term contract to remain with the team.
"Is the location of this team going to be a deciding factor? I can't honestly tell you that it will be," Rivers told XEPRS-AM.
"Is it a factor at all? Sure, but I can't tell you that it's at the top of the list, because it's just really not. That goes without saying I hope we're staying. But should we move, it doesn't move to the top of my list for deterrents for not being a Charger."
Rivers threw for 4,286 yards along with 31 touchdowns to 18 interceptions for the Chargers last season.
