Overview

  • Justin Herbert is officially questionable after surgery on his fractured left hand, practiced in a limited capacity, and is expected to play primarily from shotgun and pistol with Trey Lance as the fallback option.
  • Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter will miss multiple weeks following shoulder procedures, altering Philadelphia’s interior pass rush for the Chargers’ patchwork offensive line.
  • Rookie running back Omarion Hampton is expected to return for Los Angeles, bolstering a ground game that faces an Eagles defense coming off a 281-yard rushing allowance to Chicago.
  • Both teams enter at 8-4 for a Monday night matchup at SoFi Stadium with meaningful playoff positioning at stake in the AFC and NFC races.
  • The Chargers remain without their original starting tackles, while the Inquirer reports Lane Johnson is still out for Philadelphia with Fred Johnson starting at right tackle, and the Eagles’ offense under Kevin Patullo has lagged in yards and points versus last season.
