Chargers QB Justin Herbert injuries right foot, expected to be in boot for two weeks

Chargers

Aug 01 · 3:04 PM EDT

Following yesterday’s practice, Justin Herbert was diagnosed with an injury to the plantar fascia in his right foot.

Doctors have recommended approximately two weeks in a boot — followed by a graduated return to play protocol — with the expectation that he will be ready for the start of the regular season.

Fantasy Impact:

Ah yes, just what we needed; more bad news for the Chargers' passing game. Easton Stick should be stashed away in (very) deep SuperFlex Dynasty leagues, but doesn't move the needle in redraft leagues. If Herbert misses time in the regular season, the entire offense needs to be downgraded in fantasy.

Fantasy Impact:

Herbert suffered the injury during the first half of Sunday’s loss to the Broncos. The story went on to say head coach Brandon Staley noted on Monday that the team would do what’s best for Herbert and the quarterback’s future. With the Chargers at 5-8 and having little chance to make it to the postseason, it’s clear shutting Herbert down is the right move. It's now Stick season for the Chargers going forward.

Chargers’ QB Justin Herbert is very likely to undergo surgery Tuesday on his fractured right index finger, per source.

Fantasy Impact:

Whether Herbert will have any chance to able to return this season will be determined by the surgery, Schefter added. Reports said Herbert would do anything he could to get back on the field this season, but from the Chargers standpoint - sitting at 5-8 on the season - there isn't much need to rush Herbert back.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert (finger) out for Week 15

Chargers’ QB Justin Herbert is not expected to play Thursday night vs the Raiders due to his fractured right index finger.

Related players: Easton Stick

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say Herbert will be consulting with Dr. Steven Shin to determine the extent of the injury and how much time he will miss, per source. It's quite possible this injury could end Herbert's season, but reports have said Herbert will do anything he can to get back on the field. Owners won't have him on a short week to likely open their playoff schedule however, so a backup plan will be needed. In a pinch, Stick will at least have a talented group of weapons around him, but should probably only be in lineups in deeper leagues, especially if this is a postseason game.
