Justin Herbert Has A Chance To Play In Week 3

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (ribs) has a chance of suiting up for Week 3, according to Ian Rapoport. The 24-year-old suffered fractured rib cartilage, but the team views it as more of a pain tolerance issue. The organization got good results back on their tests, so they believe Herbert can play through the issue. Herbert looked to be in obvious pain towards the end of their matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. It remains to be seen if he can really play through this issue. Luckily for fantasy managers, the Chargers play the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 3. Herbert might be able to put together QB1 numbers with injured ribs against that secondary. However, fantasy managers should have a backup plan ready in case Herbert does struggle because of the ribs issue.
