Philip Rivers Starts to Celebrate Like Old Times After First TD vs 49ers, Then Stops

Philip Rivers nearly ripped his helmet off after opening the scoring with a 20-yard seam TD to Pierce, then stopped himself. The NFL rulebook penalizes helmet removal as unsportsmanlike conduct. The 44-year-old caught himself just in time, celebrating with restraint as he completed five of seven passes for 73 yards, showing quick, decisive command early.
