Chargers QB Justin Herbert Suffers Leg Contusion in Loss to Chiefs

Herbert briefly exited the game after a hard hit but returned to play, finishing without apparent limitations.

Justin Herbert sustained a left leg contusion during the Chargers' 19-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night.
The injury occurred in the second quarter when Herbert was hit midair by Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton while attempting a pass on third-and-10.
Herbert missed only one play before returning to the game and completed 21 of 30 passes for 213 yards and a touchdown.
Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh praised Herbert's toughness, describing him as a 'warrior,' while Herbert stated he expects to be fine moving forward.
The Chargers, now 8-5, have lost seven consecutive games to the Chiefs and will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next Sunday.
