Justin Herbert told Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh his injured ankle feels better but the quarterback was not seen at practice Wednesday ahead of Steelers game.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was not seen on the field Wednesday during the practice media viewing period after suffering an ankle injury during Sunday’s win over the Carolina Panthers. Herbert will be listed on the injury report after he “got rolled up on” during the victory. He was able to finish the game as he threw for 130 yards on 14-of-20 passing with two touchdowns and one interception. Post-game X-rays were negative, head coach Jim Harbaugh said Monday.
If the 26-year-old former Pro Bowler is unable to play Sunday, Easton Stick would be in line to start, Harbaugh said Wednesday. But outlining a specific backup plan is “going to be way over the legal limit of, ‘what-ifs,'' Harbaugh added. Stick struggled during the preseason when Herbert sat out of all three games with a plantar fascia injury. Herbert spent two weeks in a walking boot, but he downplayed the severity of the injury.
