The former San Diego/Los Angeles quarterback revealed the development to AL.com, saying that it would be a boy:

He and his wife Tiffany have yet to find a name for the child:

“We are still kind of figuring that out. We have plenty of opinions. That is what we’ve got right now.”

Twitter could not help but laugh at the news:

A look at Philip Rivers' family: Who is his wife, and how many children do they have?

Philip Rivers has one of the biggest families among professional football players, both active and retired. His wife, Tiffany (nee Goodwin), is the founder and owner of Hermoza, a swimwear line that focuses more on comfort and stylishness than usual.

The two first when they were studying at Athens High School in Alabama. They married in 2001, and the union has so far produced nine children (from oldest to youngest):

  1. Halle
  2. Caroline
  3. Grace
  4. Gunner
  5. Sarah
  6. Peter
  7. Rebecca
  8. Clare
  9. Anna

Gunner, the elder of the two sons, is currently a quarterback at St. Michael Catholic High School, where Rivers is the head coach. This academic season, he will be the program's starter for the first time

Talking about his son's potential, the eight-time Pro Bowler told Mobile, Alabama-based radio station SportsTalk 99.5 FM last year:

“It’s a little scary to be honest with you. It’s definitely similar. It’s going to be fun, this next stretch, just from a family, personal standpoint. You’ve heard me talk about how special it was to play for my dad (Steve Rivers). We are kind of getting to relive that with me on the other side. Gunner loves it, loves the school and his teammates. It’s a good group coming up.”
