Overview

  • Herbert was a limited participant Thursday and threw at practice while wearing a protective cast/brace on his non-throwing hand.
  • Coach Jim Harbaugh said the team is preparing as if Herbert will start and called the outlook optimistic, a view echoed by offensive coordinator Greg Roman.
  • The Chargers plan to announce a formal game designation on Saturday as Herbert remains listed day-to-day after Monday’s surgery.
  • Under-center snaps remain a concern, so Los Angeles is preparing to lean on shotgun and pistol looks, with Trey Lance taking first-team reps for short-yardage and goal-line situations.
  • Herbert fractured his left hand in Week 13 against the Raiders and continued playing in a hard cast; the 8-4 Chargers host the 8-4 Eagles on Monday Night Football.
