Stymied by KC
Herbert completed 16 of 27 passes for 179 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Herbert led the Chargers on a 10-play, 74-yard touchdown drive on their opening possession, during which he went 4-for-4 for 49 yards. However, he mostly struggled from there as the offense picked up only 12 total first downs and 224 net yards. Herbert has limited mistakes through four games this season, but he has also yet to reach 180 passing yards as the Chargers continue to employ a very conservative offense. Positively, he'll have a week to rest his ankle injury, as the team hits its bye…read more

Active versus Chiefs
Herbert (ankle) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Herbert, who was limited in all three of the Chargers' practices this week after having aggravated his high right-ankle sprain last weekend, approached the contest officially listed as questionable. With his active status confirmed, the QB will continue to work through his injury versus Kansas City. It remains to be seen how much Herbert's ankle issue will impact his mobility Sunday, but he'll give a go, with Taylor Heinicke and Easton Stick available to sub in should Herbert end up suffering a…read more

Expected to play
Herbert (ankle) is expected to play Sunday against the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Herbert, who is listed as questionable for the contest, will go through a pre-game warmup to determine completely if he's able to go, but the expectation is that the franchise signal caller will be available for the pivotal divisional matchup against the Chiefs. The fifth-year starter played in a similar circumstance last week, only to leave early in the fourth quarter after aggravating the reported high-ankle sprain. The Chargers have an early bye next week and this week are expecting to miss…read more

Questionable for Week 4
Herbert (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Herbert, who was limited in all three of the Chargers' practices this week, previously relayed that he's "doing everything he can" to play this weekend despite having aggravated his high right-ankle sprain last Sunday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports. While it's possible that the Chargers will consider erring on the side of caution with Herbert, considering the team is on bye Week 5, the QB indicated Wednesday he doesn't "think that's the way we're heading."

Analysis: Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Herbert said Wednesday that his ankle feels better than it did at this stage last week, while adding that he's feeling "less pain" and was able to do some 7-on-7 work during his limited session. Though the Chargers are on bye Week 5 and could benefit from having Herbert get some extended rest for the ankle injury he aggravated in the Week 3 loss to the Steelers, the quarterback acknowledged that he "doesn't think" he'll be held out this Sunday, per Ian…read more

Making progress
Chargers head caoch Jim Harbaugh noted Wednesday that the MRI that Herbert (ankle) underwent Monday showed that the quarterback is "progressing," Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Harbaugh added that Herbert might take part in practice in some capacity Wednesday after shedding the walking boot on his right ankle. The Chargers will release their first Week 4 injury report later Wednesday, when the extent of Herbert's practice participation will be known. In any case, the signal-caller's status will need to be monitored closely ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

X-ray results negative
Herbert (ankle) had X-ray results on his right ankle come up negative after Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Steelers in which he aggravated his high right ankle sprain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports,
Analysis: Herbert entered Sunday's matchup with Pittsburgh carrying a questionable designation and was forced out midway through the third quarter due to an aggravation of his injury. The franchise quarterback then was spotted in a walking boot after the game, but Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports Herbert described himself as "hopeful" to go through a similar process to the one that allowed him to be cleared to face Pittsburgh, with the Chargers now preparing for a Week 4 matchup against Kansas City.…read more

Gets X-rays on ankle
Herbert underwent X-rays on his right ankle after Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Steelers, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Herbert, who described the injury that forced him out of the contest as a "continuation" of the right high-ankle sprain that resulted in him taking a questionable tag into Sunday's game, was sporting a walking boot afterward, per Popper. The Chargers should have a better idea regarding Herbert's availability for next Sunday's game against Kansas City once the results of his X-rays are in, though the quarterback indicated that he is "hopeful" he'll be able to go through the same process that…read more

Aggravates ankle Sunday
Herbert exited Sunday's game against the Steelers with 7:09 remaining in the third quarter due to an ankle injury.
Analysis: Herbert -- who had been listed as questionable heading into Sunday's game with a right high-ankle sprain -- was cleared to start after completing a successful pregame warmup. However, he didn't appear to be 100 percent during the contest before he suffered an apparent aggravation of his ankle issue. Taylor Heinicke has taken over at quarterback for the Chargers in place of Herbert, who completed 12 of 18 pass attempts for 125 yards and one touchdown prior to his departure.

Active, set to start Sunday
Herbert (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers and is expected to start, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Coming out of the Chargers' Week 2 win over the Panthers, Herbert has been tending to a right high-ankle sprain, which kept him from practicing Wednesday and Friday. The Chargers apparently saw enough from Herbert during his limited practice Thursday and during pregame warmups Sunday to sign off on him playing, though the fact that the team is keeping both of his backups (Easton Stick and Taylor Heinicke) active for Week 3 suggests that there still may be some level of concern about his health.…read more

Game-time call, but should play
Herbert (ankle) is preparing to play Sunday against Pittsburgh, but the Chargers continue to list him as questionable and aren't expected to make a decision on his status until after pregame warmups, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Herbert is dealing with a right high-ankle sprain that resulted in him taking part in just one limited practice during Week 3 prep. The veteran quarterback appears intent on suiting up against the Steelers, but the Chargers aren't likely to allow him to play if his ankle doesn't hold up during warmups. Herbert's status remains in limbo, so fantasy managers who roster and plan to start him should be prepared with a backup option if he's ultimately ruled out ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Easton…read more

Has shot to play
Herbert, who is reportedly dealing with a high-ankle sprain, will test out his ankle before Sunday's contest and could play against the Steelers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: It's better than saying Herbert outright won't play, but the reported cadence doesn't sound too much different than what was already expected for the Pro Bowl quarterback after Herbert revealed he was dealing with a right high-ankle sprain earlier this week. Given the Chargers' run heavy approach, it's entirely possible the team will still have Herbert operate as the quarterback without putting his injured ankle at significant risk dropping back to pass repeatedly, but should the pre-game…read more

Questionable for Week 3
Herbert (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Herbert told Kris Rhim of ESPN.com on Friday that the injury he sustained during the Chargers' Week 2 win in Carolina is a high right-ankle sprain, which didn't allow him to practice until Thursday. During that session, he was spotted with a heavy tape job on his right ankle, per Rhim. Herbert also relayed Friday that it's "yet to be decided" whether he'll be able to play Sunday, so if the quarterback ultimately can't go, Easton Stick would get the call under center for Los Angeles.

Has high ankle sprain
Herbert (ankle) said Friday that it's "yet to be decided" if he'll play Sunday at Pittsburgh, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports. Additionally, Herbert relayed that he's dealing with a high right-ankle sprain.
Analysis: Herbert played all 69 offensive snaps during the Chargers' Week 2 win at Carolina, but afterward he underwent X-rays on his right leg, which were returned negative. He eventually was diagnosed with a generic ankle injury and didn't return to practice until Thursday, when he was limited. During that session, Herbert's right ankle was heavily taped, per Rhim, and now that the nature of the issue has been confirmed by the quarterback, it's no surprise he hasn't taken many practice reps this week.…read more

Limited in return to practice
Herbert (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday.
Analysis: After logging a DNP on Wednesday, Herbert's return to a limited session a day later has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers. Per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com, the QB appeared to have his right ankle heavily taped Thursday, so it remains to be seen if Herbert will be able to upgrade to full participation Friday. If that doesn't occur, Herbert likely would head into the weekend with a Week 3 injury designation.

Herbert (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Herbert had a "significant limp" after Sunday's 26-3 win over the Panthers, although he didn't miss any snaps after injuring his right ankle in the third quarter, per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com. Head coach Jim Harbaugh declined to comment on Herbert's chances of playing this Sunday at Pittsburgh, merely saying that Herbert is already "feeling much better," while adding that Easton Stick is the next man up to start at quarterback.

Meanwhile, head coach Jim Harbaugh told Kris Rhim of ESPN.com that Herbert was feeling a lot better Wednesday, while acknowledging that Easton Stick would be in line to fill in Sunday against the Steelers if Herbert doesn't progress enough this week to be available for the contest.

The franchise quarterback suffered the injury in the third quarter, but he was able to finish the contest after getting taped up. At this juncture, there's not yet any indication that Herbert is dealing with an injury that could affect his availability Sunday versus the Steelers, but it's possible his effectiveness as a runner could…read more

Analysis: Harbaugh said Los Angeles will know more about Herbert's status as the week progresses, but for now it's encouraging that the franchise quarterback at least has avoided a fracture. It's worth noting that Monday's imaging results don't dismiss the possibility of a soft-tissue injury for Herbert, who got rolled up on in the third quarter of Sunday's win over the Panthers but quickly managed to retake the field.

Gets X-rays on leg
Herbert said after Sunday's 26-3 win over the Panthers that he underwent X-rays on his lower right leg after the contest, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Herbert, who was able to finish the contest after getting taped up, indicated that he "got rolled up" on after a fumble in the third quarter. In terms of how the injury might affect his status for the Chargers' Week 3 matchup with the Steelers, Herbert said that he would "know more in the next couple of days." Herbert completed 14 of 20 pass attempts for 130 yards, two touchdowns and one interception while adding 18 yards on six carries.

Plays game-manager role in win
Herbert completed 14 of 20 passes for 130 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while adding six carries for 18 yards in the Chargers' 26-3 win over the Panthers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Through two games, Herbert is probably close to unrecognizable to fantasy managers who frequently benefitted from his gaudy yardage totals over his first four seasons. With the Chargers able to stick to head coach Jim Harbaugh's preferred method of winning a game -- that being through a punishing ground attack and sound defense -- Herbert has attempted just 43 passes through two weeks. However, he did reward those rolling with him in their lineups Sunday by tossing a pair of touchdown passes to…read more

Hardly needed in win
Herbert completed 17 of 26 pass attempts for 144 yards and a touchdown in the 22-10 win over the Raiders on Sunday. He also ran the ball four times for six yards.
Analysis: The Chargers tallied just two total first downs in the first half, its fewest in a half since 2012, as the team seemed content scrapping out yards on the ground. The heavy emphasis on the rushing attack finally paid off in the second half as J.K. Dobbins tore through Las Vegas' defense, opening up a bit of passing room for Herbert. A complete dud of a fantasy day was saved by a short touchdown pass to Ladd McConkey in the waning moments of the game as the defense completely sold out to stop the…read more

The quarterback returning to practice Aug. 19, and now that he's participating without limitations, he'll be ready to direct the offense Sunday versus the Raiders.

Looking good in 7-on-7s
Coach Jim Harbaugh said Herbert (foot) "looked great with a capital G" during 7-on-7 drills Monday, ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Herbert was held out of 11-on-11s in his first practice since being diagnosed July 31 with a plantar fascia injury. He used a walking boot for two weeks and is now progressing through what the Chargers are calling a 'gradual return to play' protocol. Herbert should be ready for a Week 1 home game against the Raiders, but it's fair to wonder if the foot injury will impact his mobility or become a problem again as the season progresses.

Throwing without moving much
Herbert (foot) threw on the field before Saturday's preseason game against the Rams, but he didn't move around much, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Popper notes that the QB mostly threw from a stationary stance during pregame warmups. It's nonetheless a good sign that Herbert has made progress, with the on-field appearance coming a couple days after he was spotted working out in the weight room without a walking boot. Herbert hasn't practiced since the end of July due to a plantar fascia injury, but there hasn't been any indication of concern about his availability for Week 1 against the Raiders.

Herbert worked out in the weight room without a walking boot while the Chargers practiced Thursday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Herbert was expected to require the walking boot for about two weeks as he tended to a plantar fascia injury, and he reached the two-week mark Thursday, so he's seemingly on course in his recovery. There's also an expectation that he'll be ready for a Week 1 matchup with the Raiders, meaning his next notable step will be getting back on the practice field in some capacity.

Out with plantar fascia injury
Herbert will utilize a boot on his right foot for approximately two weeks after he was diagnosed Wednesday with a plantar fascia injury, but the Chargers are optimistic he'll be ready for the start of the season.
Analysis: It sounds like Herbert will miss the rest of training camp and probably the preseason, with his time confined to the boot followed by a "graduated return to play protocol," per the Chargers' official twitter account. Easton Stick figures to get a majority of first-team QB reps in the meantime, and Herbert's health becomes one of the top football stories of the summer.

Analysis: That quartet accounted for 57 percent of Herbert's completions, pass yards and touchdowns last season. Still remaining on the roster are WRs Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnston, the latter of whom is likely to be tasked up considerably in 2024.

Analysis: Confirming what Tom Pelissero of NFL Network and others reported minutes earlier, Herbert will miss the rest of the season after having surgery to address the injury he suffered in the second quarter of this past Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos. Herbert should be back to full health by the start of OTAs in the spring, but he'll wrap up his fourth season in Los Angeles with a 65.1 percent completion rate for 3,134 yards, 20 touchdowns and seven interceptions to go with 52 carries for 228 yards…read more

Though the Chargers plan to send the quarterback in for multiple medical opinions before determining exactly how much time he'll miss, Herbert doesn't look like he'll be a realistic option to play while Los Angeles faces a quick turnaround for the Week 15 game.

Coach Brandon Staley said after Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos that Herbert has a fractured index finger on his right hand, Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Easton Stick replaced Herbert in the first half of the loss to the Broncos.

Herbert completed 22 of his 37 attempts for 212 yards in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Patriots. He also netted minus-5 yards on four carries.
Analysis: The score tells the whole story in this one. Facing an opposing offense incapable of getting past the 50-yard line and miserable weather conditions all afternoon, Herbert and the Chargers offense were content just avoiding any mistakes. The result is a second consecutive week with a yards-per-attempt figure below 6.0, and Sunday marked just the second time all season the Pro Bowl quarterback failed to toss a touchdown.

Suffers injury scare on SNF
Herbert completed 29 of 44 pass attempts for 217 yards, a touchdown and an interception while rushing four times for 47 yards and losing a fumble in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Herbert had to be evaluated for a concussion after getting strip-sacked by Jadeveon Clowney in the fourth quarter, as reported by FOX Sports' Eric Williams. The Chargers' star quarterback was eventually cleared to return and did not miss a snap as he unsuccessfully attempted to mount a late comeback. As for his performance on the field, Herbert wound up being responsible for two of the four turnovers that helped contribute to his team's third straight loss. Barring any lingering issues stemming…read more

Tosses two touchdowns
Herbert completed 21 of 36 passes for 260 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Packers. He also rushed eight times for 73 yards.
Analysis: Herbert endured a number of notable drops Sunday, contributing toward another narrow defeat. The quarterback nonetheless turned in a good individual display, tossing a 51-yard score to Stone Smartt and a 10-yard touchdown to top target Keenan Allen. With a season-high output on the ground as well, Herbert was productive throughout the contest but was handed a second straight three-point defeat.

Scintillating in loss
Herbert completed 27 of his 40 pass attempts for 323 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 41-38 loss to the Lions. He also threw an interception and ran for 15 yards on four carries.
Analysis: In a battle of two heavyweight offenses, Herbert simply ran out of possessions to try and answer as both teams traded major touchdowns all game long. The Pro Bowl quarterback keyed in specifically on Keenan Allen, who caught 11 of his 14 targets for 175 yards and two scores, but a dropped pass in single coverage by Quentin Johnston in the third quarter could have resulted in an even bigger afternoon. Herbert might not be on pace for his career-setting figures of 2021, but he's clearly one of…read more

Not needed much in win
Herbert completed just 16 of his 30 pass attempts for 136 yards. He didn't record a touchdown or an interception in Monday's 27-6 win over the Jets.
Analysis: New York's offense hardly threatened at any point in this contest, so Herbert and the Chargers were content to not risk any big plays. Only Keenan Allen (8-9-77) really did much of anything, and most of that came late in the second half as the team was positioning itself for the merciful dagger to an ugly overall game. Hopefully Week 10's quality matchup against the Lions will yield more production.

Masterful performance on SNF
Herbert completed 31 of 40 pass attempts for 298 yards and three touchdowns with no turnovers in Sunday's 30-13 win over Chicago.
Analysis: Herbert was on a mission to correct last week's rough performance against Kansas City, the only game in which he has thrown multiple interceptions this season. The star quarterback was locked in from the jump and likely could have challenged his near-perfect results from Week 3 -- when he completed 85 percent of his passes for 405 yards, three touchdowns and no turnovers -- had the Bears kept the score competitive in the second half. It was still an impressive display from Herbert, who is still…read more

Struggles in second half of loss
Herbert completed 17 of his 30 pass attempts for 259 yards and one touchdown to go along with two interceptions in a loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. He also carried the ball twice for five yards.
Analysis: Herbert appears to still be dealing with the broken middle finger on his left hand, as the quarterback was spotted getting his splint readjusted during the game, per James Palmer of NFL Network. That didn't seem to bother the Pro Bowler too much, but the wheels fell off after halftime as both interceptions -- including a desperation throw in the final minutes -- came in a dreadful second half that saw the Chargers fail to put a single point on the board. It should get easier for Herbert and…read more

Comes up short Monday
Herbert (finger) completed 22 of 37 pass attempts for 227 yards, two touchdowns and an interception while adding 20 rushing yards on six carries in Monday's 20-17 loss to Dallas.
Analysis: Herbert dealt with the Cowboys' vaunted pass rush well up until the Chargers' final drive, when he was sacked by Micah Parsons before promptly throwing an interception to Stephon Gilmore on the ensuing play. On a positive note, the quarterback's game was not limited by the fractured finger on his non-throwing hand suffered in last week's win over Las Vegas. Herbert even absorbed solid contact on a couple of his six rushing attempts Monday, confirming that the rest of his 6-foot-6 frame was in…read more

Herbert (finger) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

That being said, Daniel Popper of The Athletic relays that Herbert isn't expected to take any snaps under center in practice this week, though it appears to be only out of a matter of precaution to avoid any further injury to the finger.

Fractures finger, won't miss time
Herbert suffered a fractured middle finger on his non-throwing hand in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Raiders but isn't expected to miss any time, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The fourth-year quarterback's left hand got caught on the helmet of a Raiders defender when he threw an interception late in the third quarter. Herbert returned for the Chargers' next possession and ended up playing all 63 offensive snaps in the contest, finishing with 167 passing yards and 27 rushing yards while accounting for three total touchdowns. With a well-timed bye on tap Week 5, Herbert will have plenty of time to recover before the Chargers return to action Oct. 16 versus the Cowboys.

Plays through finger injury in win
Herbert completed 13 of his 24 pass attempts for 167 yards and one touchdown to go along with one interception in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Raiders. He also ran the ball 12 times for 27 yards and two additional scores.
Analysis: Both of Herbert's rushing touchdowns came in the first half as the Chargers raced out to a commanding lead. The star quarterback appeared to injure his middle finger late in the third quarter during an interception return, but he managed to stay in the game with a glove on his left hand. The injury didn't appear to bother Herbert on the final possession of the game as he ripped a laser of a 51-yard throw to Joshua Palmer on 3rd-and-10 to end a furious comeback attempt by the Raiders.

Lights up Vikings
Herbert completed 40 of 47 passes for 405 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: There has been no sign of the Chargers' run-heavy game plan from Week 1 of late, as Herbert topped 40 pass attempts for the second consecutive game. He also topped 400 passing yards for the first time in his career, highlighted by eight completions of at least 20 yards -- one more than he had on the season entering Sunday's contest. New offensive coordinator Kellen Moore promised more downfield passing this offseason, and it certainly appears that he's willing to put games into Herbert's hands.

Tops 300 yards
Herbert completed 27 of 41 passes for 305 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss to the Titans.
Analysis: The Chargers were willing to put the offense in Herbert's hands, and he responded with an excellent performance. He completed four passes of 20 or more yards while also tossing touchdowns from eight and 12 yards away, both of which went to Keenan Allen. Herbert's volume was also reassuring, as he was limited to only 33 attempts in Week 1 as the team ran its offense through the ground game. Overall, he has 534 passing yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions across two games this season.

Unable to complete comeback
Herbert completed 23 of 33 pass attempts for 228 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-34 loss to the Dolphins. He also tallied five carries for 18 yards and another score.
Analysis: Herbert seemed to make every critical throw when it mattered most, but the star quarterback couldn't do much on the team's final possession as the Dolphins sent the house and picked up multiple sacks to end a fourth-quarter comeback attempt. The electric signal caller didn't have to do too much in this contest, as the Chargers rushing attack combined for 234 yards on the ground, though Herbert hardly showed any rust, especially with his longtime target Keenan Allen (6-9-76 yards). He remains a…read more

Not likely to play Saturday
Herbert isn't in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Rams, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Nearly three weeks after inking a five-year, $262.5 million extension with the Chargers, Herbert unsurprisingly won't put anything on the line in the team's exhibition opener. With the change at offensive coordinator from Joe Lombardi to Kellen Moore, though, L.A. likely will do its due diligence and get the first-team offense some snaps together before Week 1. Herbert's next chance for game action is Sunday, Aug. 20 versus the Saints.

Inks long-term extension
The Chargers and Herbert agreed to terms on a five-year, $262.5 million extension Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Herbert's new deal means he's locked in through the 2029 campaign. Through his first three seasons, he's topped 5,000 passing yards on one occasion and 30-plus touchdowns two times, while also rushing for eight scores in 49 games. Herbert is the second-to-last domino to fall in the QB extension market this offseason, with Joe Burrow still yet to get his big payday from the Bengals.

He's set to take another step forward in his rehab this week, as he'll participate in team drills for the first time this offseason, and he remains on pace to be fully healthy by training camp.

Herbert (shoulder) threw passes to teammates Monday at OTAs, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Herbert resumed throwing earlier in May, about 13-to-14 weeks after postseason surgery on the labrum in his left shoulder. He's doing well enough to throw in practice, albeit without any defenders on the field for the first day of OTAs. There's still a chance Herbert misses some reps this spring, but he's well on his way to starting Week 1 and has a couple new faces in town (OC Kellen Moore, WR Quentin Johnston) to help him rebound from a disappointing 2022 in which the QB's touchdown rate (3.6…read more

Analysis: Coming off winter surgery on a torn labrum in his left shoulder, Herbert hadn't resumed throwing as of late April. He's throwing now, which doesn't mean he'll be cleared for spring practices but does show he's progressing about as expected. Once he's ready to practice, Herbert will have a new offensive coordinator (Kellen Moore) and rookie first-round wideout (Quentin Johnston) on hand to help him thrive in his fourth NFL season.

Through three seasons, Herbert has racked up at last 4,300 passing yards on each occasion, posted 94 touchdowns versus 35 interceptions and also added eight scores on the ground. Currently, he's in the midst of his recovery from surgery on his left, non-throwing shoulder and remains a couple weeks away from making light throws, but there's little worry about him…read more

Recovery progressing, not throwing
Herbert's shoulder is roughly 75 percent healed, but he is still a few weeks away from beginning light throwing, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: Herbert underwent surgery on his non-throwing shoulder in late January and has been rehabbing since. He may miss OTAs, as the team is likely to play it safe with its franchise quarterback, but there is little concern that he'll be ready for the start of training camp. In the meantime, Herbert and the Chargers have been in talks on a long-term extension.

Head coach Brandon Staley said Herbert (shoulder) is "up in the air" for the start of OTAs on May 22, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic.
Analysis: Herbert underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left, non-throwing shoulder shortly after the Chargers' wild-card loss to the Jaguars. He was initially believed to be injured Week 17. The two sides also are in the midst of long-term contract extension talks. Herbert should be healed in time for training camp later this summer.

The Chargers and Herbert (shoulder) are working toward a long-term contract extension for the QB, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN reports. "Those talks are ongoing," coach Brandon Staley noted Tuesday. "We're at the beginning of all that, but (we) all know how we feel about him."
Analysis: While there's no concrete timetable for the team to get a lucrative extension with Herbert done, Staley emphasized that "the major takeaway is that Justin is going to be our quarterback, and we're so excited that he is leading our franchise." The 2020 first-rounder is slated to earn $4.23 million in the fourth season of his rookie deal, with Thiry adding that the Chargers are in line to exercise his fifth-year option.

Herbert finished the contest with 212 yards and two touchdowns but was replaced by Chase Daniel in the fourth quarter.

One touchdown in playoff loss
Herbert completed 25 of 43 passes for 273 yards, one touchdown and zero interceptions in Saturday's 31-30 wild-card round loss to the Jaguars. He added three rushes for 12 yards.
Analysis: It didn't lead to a particularly notable performance from a box score standpoint, but Herbert helped lead the Chargers to 27 points in the first half. His lone touchdown came on a nine-yard completion with Gerald Everett midway through the second quarter. Herbert did struggle in the second half -- along with the entire team -- as he averaged only 5.8 yards per attempt and failed to generate offense at key points in the game.

Heads into postseason on high note
Herbert completed 25 of 37 passes for 273 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed twice for minus-1 yard in the Chargers' 31-28 loss to the Broncos on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.
Analysis: Herbert and his fellow first-unit weapons played the majority of the game despite the Chargers' playoff positioning being locked in. The third-year signal-caller hit Keenan Allen and Gerald Everett with scoring tosses from 14 and three yards out, respectively, giving him eight multi-touchdown performances during the regular season.

His pair came on tosses of six and three yards in the middle of the third and late fourth quarters, respectively.

Analysis: Though the Chargers had a relatively easy win and clinched a trip to the postseason, Herbert had one of his last productive games of the season. That was in part caused by game script, though he was sacked four times and was regularly under pressure, which limited his ability to push the ball deep.

Tops 300 yards in Sunday's win
Herbert completed 28 of 42 passes for 313 yards with two interceptions in Sunday's 17-14 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Despite the fact he posted his third straight 300-yard game, Herbert failed to get the ball into the end zone for only the third time in 46 career NFL contests. He still came up big when it counted, however, getting the Chargers in position for a game-winning field goal with just 44 seconds left in the fourth quarter. Herbert will look to rack up some TDs in Week 16 against a Colts defense that could still be reeling after huge second-half collapses in each of its last two games.

Herbert completed 39 of his 51 pass attempts for 367 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Dolphins. He also ran four times for eight yards.
Analysis: While fantasy managers may not be entirely thrilled with the performance, this was among one of the best games of Hebert's career. The 39 completions set a career high while the 367 passing yards were his fourth-most in a contest, but more importantly the third-year pro did it all while constantly maneuvering throughout the pocket, time and again stepping up, around and between pass rushers to create enough time to hit the open receiver.

Analysis: The Raiders' fearsome pass rush proved to be an issue for the Chargers all game long, as Herbert struggled to find much rhythm. The star quarterback did complete passes to eight different targets, but the overwhelming majority went to Keenan Allen, Gerald Everett, Austin Ekeler and Joshua Palmer. Los Angeles' erratic defense has essentially made Herbert a consistent top option most weeks, and it shouldn't change in the coming weeks with a number of dangerous teams still left on the schedule.

Three touchdowns to rally for win

Analysis: Herbert threw for three touchdowns for the first time since Week 2, cashing in for two, 33 and one-yard scores. He also managed a strong yardage total, though that came primarily due to volume rather than efficiency as he averaged only 5.8 yards per attempt. Though his production came from his work as a passer, Herbert did chip in a season-best 38 rushing yards -- also good enough to lead the team.

Sunday marked the first time since Week 7 the third-year signal caller tallied multiple touchdowns in a contest, and not coincidentally Sunday also marked the return of his two top targets in Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, although the latter didn't make it through the full game after sustaining an ankle injury.

Analysis: For the second straight week, Herbert had to attempt more than 50 passes, but this time the volume didn't result in a win. The quarterback's numbers were still solid, especially considering his depleted wideout group -- Joshua Palmer (concussion) was inactive, Keenan Allen didn't appear to be 100 percent after returning from a hamstring strain, and even Mike Williams limped off with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter.

That allowed Herbert to rack up an incredible volume of pass attempts, though he managed only an abysmal 4.2 yards per attempt, which limited him to under 250 passing yards for the second consecutive game.

Analysis: Herbert took a back seat as the Chargers compiled 238 rushing yards against a porous Browns run defense. The young quarterback has been absolutely dynamic to begin the season, as Herbert is currently second in the NFL in passing yards and near the top of the league in TD:INT (10:2).

He threw multiple touchdowns for the third time this season, including an 18 yard-toss to Gerald Everett and a 14-yard completion to Austin Ekeler.

Herbert (ribs) completed 25 of his 45 attempts for 297 yards and one touchdown to go along with one interception in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Jaguars. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Consecutive turnovers to begin the second quarter put the Chargers offense into overdrive in an effort to catch up from a two-score deficit, but inefficiencies only seemed to pile up from there as the game quickly got out of control. Herbert suffered fractured rib cartilage in last Thursday's loss to the Chiefs and needed a pain-killing injection in order to be cleared for the Week 3 contest, but he mostly looked like himself albeit with noticeably less mobility outside the pocket. Expect the…read more

Slated to start Sunday
Herbert (ribs) is active and starting Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Herbert, who suffered fractured rib cartilage against Kansas City in Week 2, is in uniform Sunday, but it remains to be seen how effective he'll be while playing through the issue. If the Chargers' franchise QB ends up limited at all in the contest or suffers any in-game setbacks, Chase Daniel is next up for the team's signal-caller snaps, with Easton Stick in reserve.

Suiting up Sunday
Herbert (ribs) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Analysis: Also in uniform for the Chargers are fellow QBs Chase Daniel and Easton Stick, but given Herbert is not listed among the team's Week 3 inactives, he's a starting option for the team versus the Jaguars.

Week 3 status TBD
Herbert is expected to make a decision during pregame warm-ups ahead of Sunday's 4:05 ET kickoff about whether to take a pain-killing injection in his fractured rib cartilage in order to try and play against the Jaguars in Week 3, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Analysis: Both Schefter and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network suggest that the QB is pushing to play, but at this stage Herbert profiles as a true game-time decision and fantasy managers considering him in Week 3 lineups are advised to have a contingency plan in mind. If Herbert is unable to start Sunday, Chase Daniel would draw the assignment in his place.

Game-time decision for Week 3
Herbert (ribs), who's listed as questionable, will likely be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's matchup against Jacksonville, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Herbert didn't practice Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday, but as expected, the team will put him through a workout during pregame ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff before determining his status for Week 3. If Herbert is sidelined, Chase Daniel would draw the start in his place.

Herbert (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars after sitting out Friday's practice.
Analysis: Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Herbert indicated that the plan is for him to work out before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET contest before a determination is made on his Week 3 status. If Herbert is unable to start against Jacksonville, Chase Daniel would draw the assignment in his place.

Herbert (ribs) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Per Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com, Herbert is considered day-to-day after suffering a fracture to his rib cartilage in last Thursday's loss to the Chiefs. While Herbert didn't throw any passes during the portion of practice open to reporters Wednesday, the QB was seen throwing Thursday, with Thiry adding that the Chargers plan to closely monitor how comfortable/sore Herbert is during and after practice.

Does individual drills
Herbert (ribs) is feeling better this week and will be a limited practice participant Wednesday after doing some throwing Tuesday, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Herbert played through fractured rib cartilage in the fourth quarter of last Thursday's loss to the Chiefs, throwing his third and final touchdown while clearly in pain. The Chargers consider him day-to-day, and he'll wear a rib protector during individual drills at Wednesday's practice.

Day-to-day with rib injury
Chargers head coach Brandon Staley relayed Friday that Herbert has fractured rib cartilage and is "day-to-day" at this stage, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Staley also told Popper that Herbert, who injured his ribs in Thursday's loss to Kansas City, could be able to practice at some point next week, while noting that the Chargers will reassess Herbert's situation Monday. Ultimately, Herbert's availability for the team's Sept. 25 contest could come down to pain tolerance, but the added healing time afforded by Los Angeles' recent short week could help the QB remain in the lineup Week 3.

Undergoes X-rays after TNF loss
Herbert (ribs) underwent X-rays following Thursday's loss to the Chiefs, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports. Herbert completed 33 of 48 passes for 334 yards, three touchdowns and one interception during the contest.
Analysis: Herbert led scoring drives on the Chargers' first two offensive possessions and threw a 15-yard touchdown to Mike Williams on the first drive of the second half, giving Los Angeles a 17-7 lead. After Kansas City tied the game at 17-17, the Chargers started to move the ball again, but Herbert threw an interception at the goal line that was returned for a touchdown. Two drives later, Herbert took a hard shot to the left side of his ribs and had to be looked at by trainers, forcing Chase Daniel…read more

Surgical in win
Herbert completed 26 of 34 attempts for 279 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Sunday wound up being an impressively efficient outing for the Pro Bowler as Herbert completed more passes to different receivers (nine) than he had total incompletions (eight). Despite an apparent hamstring injury to Keenan Allen, the 24-year-old quarterback hardly seemed out of sync, most notably completing an impressive out-of-rhythm touchdown to Gerald Everett in the third quarter that put the Chargers up two scores. Allen's status with be worth monitoring considering the veteran is…read more

Unlikely to play Saturday
Herbert and other starters aren't expected to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Rams, Elliott Teaford of The Press-Enterprise reports.
Analysis: It's a strong bet both teams rest starters, or at least the key players. The Chargers have a second-year head coach in Brandon Staley and a core group of skill-position players that were together for at least one year before that. Herbert will again look to Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and Austin Ekeler as his primary threats, leading what figures to be one of the better offenses in the NFL this year.

Trying to improve footwork
Herbert believes he'll benefit from a full offseason of practices, with improving his footwork in the pocket being a key point of emphasis, Jeff Kerr of CBSSports.com reports.
Analysis: Herbert is in the midst of his first "normal" offseason, as his first two years in the NFL coincided with the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Chargers also had a major coaching staff change between Years 1 and 2, with Los Angeles bringing in head coach Brandon Staley and offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi last winter. Both are back for 2022, as are Herbert, running back Austin Ekeler and wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. The biggest offseason loss might be tight end…read more

Fourth-down heroics not enough
Herbert completed 34 of 64 pass attempts for 383 yards and three touchdowns to go along with one interception in Sunday's 35-32 overtime loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Herbert obliterated his previous career high in pass attempts (53) as the Chargers stormed back from a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter to ultimately force overtime. While the second-year quarterback's critics will point to the signal caller's inability to win important games, it's hard to be anything but impressed with what Herbert's been able to do on the field. The penultimate 19-play, 83-yard drive that ultimately tied the game on an absolute laser to Mike Williams is a perfect…read more

Easily secures win
Herbert tallied 22 completions on 31 attempts for 237 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-13 victory over the Broncos.
Analysis: Herbert and company didn't need to do much with the Broncos defense decimated by COVID-19 as the quarterback easily knifed through a vulnerable unit. As a result, it was hardly a banner day for the second-year quarterback, but Herbert's second touchdown pass did lock up the franchise record for most touchdowns thrown in a single season. Up next is a critical divisional matchup with the Raiders that will likely determine one of the few remaining AFC playoff spots.

Racks up yardage against Houston
Herbert completed 27 of 35 passes for 336 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 41-29 loss to the Texans.
Analysis: Herbert managed an efficient 9.6 yards per attempt, though he threw multiple interceptions for the first time since Week 12. One of those picks came in the final moments with the Chargers on a drive to potentially close their deficit to one possession, instead resulting in the Texans icing the win. In addition to his mistakes, Herbert also failed to throw for multiple scores for the first time in his last five games, and his lone touchdown came on a three-yard strike with only 38 seconds left…read more

Three TDs in loss
Herbert completed 22 of 38 passes for 236 yards and two touchdowns to go along with one interception in Thursday's 34-28 overtime loss to the Chiefs. He also carried the ball five times for 16 yards and another score.
Analysis: The Chargers offense wasn't particularly explosive, but fantasy managers certainly have to be happy with the outcome regardless. Despite Herbert tallying three total touchdowns for the fourth time in the last five games, the biggest story will be the missed opportunities as the Chargers dropped sure-fire touchdown passes on two separate first-half drives, not to mention a slightly overthrown deep pass to Keenan Allen on the team's final possession which could have dramatically altered the…read more

Another strong showing
Herbert completed 23 of 31 pass attempts for 275 yards and three touchdowns against the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Herbert established control from start to finish against the Giants, making productive targets out of secondary receivers Jalen Guyton (three catches for 87 yards and one touchdown on three targets) and Josh Palmer (five catches for 66 yards and one touchdown on seven targets) while lead target Keenan Allen sat due to COVID-19 protocols.

Sensational first half
Herbert completed 26 of 35 passes for 317 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 41-22 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: The Chargers defense took over in the first quarter, setting the stage for Herbert to toss three first-half touchdowns in what appeared to be an easy win before typical Los Angeles shenanigans complicated matters somewhat. Herbert's lone interception was essentially fluky as it came on a gorgeous deep ball that simply slid off Josh Palmer's hands into the defending corner's flailing arms.

Inconsistent outing in loss
Herbert completed 28 of 44 attempts for 303 yards and two touchdowns to go along with two interceptions in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Broncos. He also led the team in rushing with 36 yards on four carries.
Analysis: Fantasy managers will be happy enough with Herbert's performance, but much of his production came in junk time, and a a poorly thrown checkdown to Austin Ekeler in the fourth quarter bounced off the running back's hands and turned into a game-sealing pick six. That wasn't the only bad throw for the 23-year-old, as Herbert also made an uncharacteristically bad throw with the game within reach to begin the fourth, missing Jared Cook on a red-zone throw that turned into an interception and helped…read more

Incredible performance in win
Herbert completed 30 of 41 attempts for 382 passing yards and three touchdowns to go along with one interception in Sunday's come-from-behind 41-37 win over the Steelers. He also carried the ball nine times for 90 yards.
Analysis: The Chargers appeared to be cruising to an easy win before the Steelers stormed back from a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter to take the lead, in part because of a tipped pass turned interception that represented the lone blemish in an otherwise sterling performance from Herbert. The second-year quarterback time and again stepped up into the pocket and routinely extended drives with his legs, rushing for multiple first downs, including a pivotal fourth-quarter 36-yard scramble that set up…read more

Analysis: His two-yard TD toss to Austin Ekeler in the third quarter gave the Bolts a 17-13 lead, but the game was all Minnesota down the stretch. Herbert has not taken the big step forward in his second season some expected, but he still sports a solid 19:7 TD:INT through nine games heading into a Week 11 tilt against the Steelers.

Produces three TDs in win
Herbert completed 32 of 38 passes for 356 yards and two touchdowns while gaining 14 yards and a TD on five carries in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Eagles. He also threw a two-point conversion.
Analysis: After two shaky performances sandwiched around the Chargers' Week 7 bye, Herbert rebounded with one of his sharpest performances of the season. He leaned heavily on his tight ends in the red zone, tossing TDs to Donald Parham and Stephen Anderson and hitting Jared Cook for a two-point conversion. Herbert will take an 18:6 TD:INT, plus two rushing scores, through eight games into a Week 10 clash with the Vikings.

Herbert (right hand) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: Herbert was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday, but his return to a full session Thursday paves the way for him to start Sunday's game against the 3-5 Eagles.

Back-to-back poor outings
Herbert completed 18 of 35 passes for 233 yards and two touchdowns to go along with two interceptions in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Patriots. He also carried the ball twice for nine yards.
Analysis: After a sizzling four-game stretch to begin the season, Herbert and the rest of the Chargers have come back down to earth. Sunday marked the second straight game in which the second-year quarterback completed under 60 percent of his passes. Credit that somewhat to the Patriots' run-heavy approach, which limited Herbert to his fewest passing attempts this season, but even when the Chargers did have the ball, miscommunication with his receivers was an issue. Most notably, Herbert sailed a pass…read more

Flops in Baltimore
Herbert completed 22 of 39 passes for 195 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 34-6 loss to the Ravens. He added 12 yards on two rushing attempts.
Analysis: Herbert started 8-for-17 for 71 yards and an interception through five drives as the Chargers fell behind 17-0, but he came alive with a one-yard touchdown to Jared Cook on the following possession. That momentum was short-lived, however, as Baltimore answered with a third-quarter touchdown, followed by a Herbert incompletion on 4th-and-1 in his own territory that all but decided the result with more than a quarter to play.

Five touchdowns in high-scoring win
Herbert completed 26 of 43 attempts for 398 yards and four touchdowns. He also carried the ball four times for 29 yards and an additional score in the 47-42 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Analysis: Herbert's extraordinary outing set the record for most 300-yard games through two years in the league (11) as he absolutely eviscerated a stout Browns defense to the tune of 15.3 yards per completion. The young signal caller completed at least one 20-yard pass to five different targets as the offense relentlessly attacked downfield. It certainly helps that the Chargers seem intent on maximizing their possessions, as Herbert and company converted all three fourth-down conversions in the second…read more

He then helped the Chargers maintain their lead after halftime, playing turnover-free ball for the second straight game.

Hurts hand in heroic win
Herbert had his throwing hand wrapped and iced before he left Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, but he's expected to be okay, NFL.com reports.
Analysis: Herbert played every snap in Sunday's 30-24 win over Kansas City, including a four-yard, game-winning TD pass to Mike Williams on the final play of the afternoon for the Chargers offense. Williams' fifth-year breakout has aided the second-year QB's average of 318.7 passing yards per game, though Herbert has perhaps been a bit disappointing in fantasy due to turnovers (four) and a lack of rushing production (27 yards, zero TDs). In any case, he'll have an extra day to recover from his hand…read more

Masterful in signature win
Herbert completed 26 of 38 passes for 281 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Chiefs. He also registered 16 yards on four carries.
Analysis: The Chargers benefitted from a turnover-prone Chiefs offense as Herbert and company scored 20 points off miscues. The second-year quarterback has picked up right where he left off following his Rookie of the Year campaign in 2020, throwing for 951 yards and a sterling 6:3 TD:INT ratio through three contests while benefitting significantly from a new-look offense that seems designed to primarily move the ball through the air (just 21 designed runs Sunday).

Analysis: The second-year signal caller again attempted 40-plus passes, but the Dallas defense did a good job limiting Herbert from connecting on any big plays. The star QB spread the ball around to his pass catchers, completing receptions to nine different targets. The two interceptions were unpredictably poor throws from the 23-year-old, as a forced pass to Keenan Allen on the opening drive coupled with an errant pass late in the third quarter at the goal line directly crushed two scoring…read more

By the end of the first half, the second-year signal-caller had completed passes to seven different players and finished the game with at least a dozen completions over 15-plus yards.

The fifth overall pick from the 2020 draft set an NFL rookie record with 31 passing touchdowns, also adding five additional scores (and 234 more yards) on the ground.

Herbert completed 22 of 31 pass attempts for 302 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 38-21 win over the Chiefs. He also carried the ball six times for nine yards and an additional score.
Analysis: Herbert ends the season with NFL rookie records for most passing touchdowns (31), most total touchdowns (36), most completions (396), most 300-yard games (eight) and most games with multiple passing touchdowns (10). He was also 39 yards shy of setting the single-season record for most passing yards by a rookie.

Plays hero again in win

Analysis: He also rushed four times for 14 yards and a game-winning score, committing a fumble on the play prior to that, which was recovered by fullback Gabe Nabers. The rookie QB had been in somewhat of a yardage slump by his lofty standards, as he'd fallen short of the 300-yard mark in two straight games after eclipsing the figure in six of his first 10 career contests.

Struggles in loss to Patriots
Herbert completed 26 of 53 pass attempts for 209 yards and two interceptions during Sunday's 45-0 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Herbert completed less than half of his pass attempts and averaged a dismal 3.9 yards per attempt. He threw interceptions on back-to-back drives to start the third quarter with his team down big and failed to throw a touchdown pass for the first time in his young career. Herbert had an excellent 8:2 TD:INT over his previous four games and should bounce back next Sunday in an inviting matchup with the Falcons.

Herbert converted 31 of his 52 pass attempts for 316 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Herbert was able to benefit from a junk-time drive that nearly yielded a touchdown despite horrendous clock management. The end result saw the rookie post his sixth game with at least 300 passing yards and a touchdown, but the gaudy yardage total masked what was an overall lackluster effort from the Chargers offense.

Analysis: Herbert was able to pile on some junk-time production late, but it was an overall mundane performance in the battle of rookie QBs. A bevy of inaccurate throws stalled the Chargers' offense all game long, but the final nail in the coffin came when Herbert stared down his intended target early in the fourth quarter and threw a drive-ending interception, setting up the Dolphins for an easy touchdown to take a two-score lead.

Comeback attempt falls short
Herbert completed 28 of 42 passes for 326 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-26 loss to the Raiders. He also carried the ball five times for 24 yards.
Analysis: It was another fantastic fantasy performance for the young quarterback, but it's certainly a disappointing outcome overall considering the Chargers had two attempts to score the game-winning touchdown inside the 10 yard line only to come away empty in yet another tragically disappointing loss. Keenan Allen continues to build a rapport with Herbert, but it's especially encouraging to see the No. 6 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft continue to target Mike Williams, with whom he connected on five…read more

Healthy for Sunday
Coach Anthony Lynn downplayed Herbert's appearance on the injury report this week, saying the quarterback is merely dealing with normal soreness, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Herbert was listed with a right shoulder injury Thursday and Friday, logging full practices both days. The Chargers aren't concerned, so he should be good to go this Sunday against a Raiders defense that's given up the ninth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks. Herbert is averaging 303.3 passing yards and 2.8 total TDs per game, consistently putting up good numbers.

Makes key mistake in loss
Herbert completed 29 of 43 pass attempts for 278 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 8 against Denver. He added three rush attempts for 21 yards.
Analysis: Herbert continued to show the ability to move the Chargers' offense effectively, accounting for three or more touchdowns for his fourth consecutive start. He's also topped 275 yards through the air in five of his first six starts as a professional. Herbert's effort was highlighted by a number of deep passes to Mike Williams, including connections of 26, 24 and 19 yards. However, Herbert also made a few errors -- it was his first multi-interception game -- including an interception late in the…read more

Explosive effort earns first win
Herbert completed 27 of 43 pass attempts for 347 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 39-29 win over the Jaguars. He also had nine carries for 66 yards and a score.
Analysis: Herbert had arguably the sloppiest first half of his young career Sunday, but he rallied back to notch a season-best mark in terms of passing yards while logging his second straight game with four scores. He also showcased his athleticism on the ground, setting more career-high tallies in terms of both rushing yards and carries. Through five starts, Herbert now boasts a 12:3 TD:INT ratio through the air, an exceptional mark that's come in large part due to his chemistry with favorite target…read more

Throws four TDs in loss
Herbert completed 20 of 34 passes for 264 yards and four touchdowns in Monday night's 30-27 overtime loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Herbert showed exactly why the Chargers named him their starter going forward, flashing a combination of athleticism and playmaking in the passing game. The rookie began by finding Keenan Allen on a 17-yard score, and even though his top target subsequently exited with a back injury, Herbert still tossed three touchdowns by halftime. While that tally included scores from just three and four yards, Herbert hit Mike Williams with a 64-yard pass on his fourth score. That play put Los Angeles in a…read more

Will remain starter
Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said Thursday that Herbert will serve as the team's starting quarterback moving forward, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: The decision, which comes in advance of Monday's game against the Saints, is a reversal of Lynn's previous stance, as the coach originally indicated that Week 1 starter Tyrod Taylor (ribs/chest) wouldn't lose his job due to an injury. Herbert's impressive play while filling in for Taylor forced Lynn's hand, however, and the rookie will now assume the position the Chargers had in mind for him when they selected him sixth overall in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Another strong showing in loss
Herbert completed 20 of 25 passes for 291 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in the Chargers' 38-31 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also rushed five times for 14 yards.
Analysis: The rookie nearly eclipsed the 300-yard mark for the third time in as many starts to open his career, with a pretty 72-yard touchdown pass to Jalen Guyton in the fourth quarter helping him come tantalizingly close. While he ultimately fell short, Herbert once again looked very comfortable against a solid defense, and he was able to thrive most of the afternoon despite being without key deep threat Mike Williams (hamstring). Herbert's one interception was especially ill-timed, however, as it…read more

Can't quite complete comeback
Herbert completed 35 of 49 passes for 330 yards and a touchdown along with an interception in the 21-16 loss Sunday to the Panthers. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Herbert was strip sacked on the team's second possession, setting up an uphill battle all afternoon for the rookie. Herbert looked poised throughout most of the contest, and he rebounded from an erratic first half to help the Chargers make a last ditch come-from-behind drive that could have been successful if Austin Ekeler hadn't botched a hook-and-ladder attempt that would have scored the game-winning touchdown. Keenan Allen and Hunter Henry were Herbert's primary targets in the middle of the…read more

Week 3 start confirmed
Coach Anthony Lynn confirmed that Herbert will start Sunday's game against the Panthers, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Herbert will pick up a second straight start after reports surfaced Wednesday that Tyrod Taylor suffered a punctured lung prior to kickoff in the Chargers' overtime loss to the Chiefs in Week 2. Per Popper, Lynn said that the Chargers haven't considered placing Taylor on injured reserve, the team won't take any chances with the veteran signal-caller Week 3, given that he's understandably not 100 percent. Taylor will presumably be officially ruled out by the end of the week, while Herbert will…read more

Expected to draw Week 3 start
Herbert is expected to start Sunday's game against the Panthers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, doctors have advised Tyrod Taylor not to play "indefinitely" due to a punctured lung that he suffered after receiving a pain-killing injection prior to kickoff Week 2. Though Herbert filled in admirably in the Chargers' 23-20 overtime loss to the Chiefs, coach Anthony Lynn previously indicated that Taylor wouldn't lose his starting job to an injury, and there had been some initial hope the veteran would return to action Week 3. Wednesday's news, however, sets the…read more

May start again Week 3
Herbert could be in store for a second straight start Week 3 against the Panthers with the Chargers listing incumbent Tyrod Taylor (chest) as week-to-week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Herbert was informed just moments before kickoff in Sunday's game against the Chiefs that he would be starting when Taylor was scratched and sent to the hospital after experiencing an adverse reaction to an pregame injection he took to address a lingering rib injury, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Considering the circumstances, Herbert performed impressively, completing 22 of his 33 pass attempts for 311 yards, one touchdown and an interception to go with 18 yards and another score…read more

Impresses in NFL debut
Herbert completed 22 of 33 passes for 311 yards with a touchdown and an interception while rushing for 18 yards and a TD on four carries in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Thrust into the starting lineup ahead of schedule when Tyrod Taylor reported chest pains during pregame warmups and had to be sent to the hospital, Herbert very nearly led the Chargers to an upset of the reigning champs. The sixth overall pick in this year's draft looked poised in leading his team to a 14-6 lead at halftime before Patrick Mahomes launched a late comeback. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, coach Anthony Lynn said after the game that Taylor would handle starting duties if…read more

Surprise Week 2 starter
Herbert started Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Tom Krasovic of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Analysis: This surprising development is the result of Tyrod Taylor being listed as questionable by the Chargers with a chest injury. It remains to be seen if Taylor is able to enter the game at any point, but Herbert -- the No. 6 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft -- will have a chance to helm his team's offense in the meantime.

Little playing time set for 2020
Herbert isn't expected to start many games for the Chargers as a rookie, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Popper alluded to a recent segment on HBO's "Hard Knocks," which featured Herbert acknowledging a bit of a learning curve as he makes the jump from college to the NFL. Tyrod Taylor is more or less slated to start every game this season thanks to the "catching up" the rookie still needs to do. That sentiment has essentially been accepted as fact throughout most of the Chargers' training camp, although it's still worth noting Herbert's athletic tools pose significantly more upside for the offense…read more

Inks rookie deal
Herbert signed his rookie contract with the Chargers on Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The No. 6 overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft will receive $26.6 million fully guaranteed over four seasons, plus a fifth-year option. Tyrod Taylor is expected to start with the departure of longtime-Charger Philip Rivers, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an offseason of minimal team activities that will make it more difficult for rookies to acclimate. Still, Herbert could take the reins at some point in 2020 if Taylor struggles or gets injured.
