If you only take talent into account, Herbert (foot) rates among the best in the NFL at his position, with a strong arm, underrated athleticism, and the moxie to make pretty much every throw. The box score tells a different story. After an excellent second season (5,014 yards, 38 TDs), the Oregon alum watched his numbers drop to 4,739 yards/25 TDs in Year 3, and then 3,134 yards/20 TDs this past season. Granted, he missed the final four weeks with a finger injury, but even adjusting for a full 17-game slate leads to a modest projection of 4,098 yards and 26 TDs.
A revolving door at offensive coordinator hasn't helped with Herbert playing for three OCs (Shane Steichen, Joe Lombardi, and Kellen Moore) in his four years. That's the case once again in 2024 as new head coach Jim Harbaugh hired Greg Roman as OC, who wants to control the line of scrimmage and run the football. On the player front, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are gone -- the Bolts will try to replace them with a mix of Josh Palmer, veteran D.J. Chark, last year's first-rounder Quentin Johnson, and rookie Ladd McConkey.
With changes to the coaching staff and offensive approach, along with personnel losses, it looks like a lot to overcome. Adding to the challenges, Herbert suffered a plantar fascia injury in his right foot and will miss most of training camp. The team remains confident that he'll be ready for Week 1, but it's a less-than-ideal scenario as LA integrates a lot of new pieces. Still, Herbert is a top talent, and while he's best viewed as an upper-end QB2, he offers tangible upside.

 High-ankle sprain for Herbert, Questionable for Week 3
Missed practice on Friday
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Sep 20, 2:46 pm
| | Chargers QB Justin Herbert told reporters that he suffered a high-ankle sprain Sunday vs. Carolina. Chargers officially are listing Justin Herbert as questionable for Sunday’s game versus Pittsburgh. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Herbert didn't practice Wednesday or Friday this week, only getting in a limited session Thursday. It seems unlikely that he'll play but if he does, his mobility will be limited. Josh Palmer (elbow, calf) is also listed as Questionable but missed practice all week. Expect him to be on the Inactive list Sunday.
| Justin Herbert, Josh Palmer miss practice Wednesday
Ankle injury for Herbert
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Sep 18, 12:47 pm
| | Don’t see Justin Herbert (ankle) for the start of #Chargers practice. Also do not see Josh Palmer or Junior Colson (Daniel Popper on X)
FFToday's Take: Palmer is listed on the injury report with elbow and calf issues. In the Chargers run-heavy approach, Quentin Johnston and Ladd McConkey saw the majority of work at receiver last week against the Panthers and both appear to be better bets than Palmer this week against the Steelers given Palmer's injury status. Herbert injured his ankle last week but played the entire game.
