Denver Broncos defensive end Derek Wolfe and San Diego Chargers quarterback Phillip Rivers don’t seem to be the best of friends.

Following Denver’s 27-19 win over San Diego on Sunday, Altitude TV’s Vic Lombardi interviewed Wolfe about Rivers and got an, ummm, interesting response.

Rivers, who has eight children with his wife Tiffany, spent a good portion of the afternoon Sunday engaged in trash talk with various members of the Broncos’ defense.

Football certainly forces a lot of emotions to bubble to the surface. But this seemed to be a little much.
