Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is dealing with an ankle injury and was limited in practice Tuesday, raising questions about his availability for Thursday Night Football against the Denver Broncos.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was limited at practice on Tuesday due to an ankle injury, ahead of their Thursday Night Football matchup against the Denver Broncos . Herbert played through the same ankle injury last week in a loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, only missing one snap. Now 8-6 and battling for playoff contention, the Chargers are dealing with a full injury report on a short week.
Other notable absences from Tuesday's practice included wide receiver Quentin Johnston (ankle), tight end Will Dissly (shoulder), cornerback Cam Hart (concussion), defensive back Elijah Molden (knee), and defensive lineman Otito Ogbonnia (pelvis). Herbert has managed a number of injuries this season, including a right ankle injury in Week 2. He did not miss any games for that initial injury. Comparing this ankle injury to the one suffered in Week 2, Herbert stated last week, 'I would say this one is probably not as severe. It's definitely painful enough to be able to miss a practice, but I felt like I've been able to move around a little bit better this week than I did after Carolina where I was put into a boot and had difficulty walking. I think we're farther along this week.' The prime-time showdown features a matchup of former Oregon Ducks quarterbacks in Herbert and Denver's Bo Nix
