Overview
- Jacksonville announced Saturday its practice-squad elevations for Week 11, and Patrick Herbert was not included, so he will not play against the Chargers.
- The matchup still features a family twist with Patrick in the building as his older brother, Justin Herbert, quarterbacks 7-3 Los Angeles against the 5-4 Jaguars.
- Patrick, an Oregon product who went undrafted in 2025, has yet to make his NFL regular-season debut and has spent the year on Jacksonville’s practice squad.
- Injuries to Jaguars tight ends Brenton Strange and Hunter Long had opened the door to a possible elevation earlier in the week, but the team stayed with other options.
- Patrick called the moment “awesome” as attention on the brothers’ resemblance surged online, while the game carries AFC wild-card implications noted in standings coverage.
