Will Justin Herbert Keep Relying on His Legs Heading Into Sunday Night?

Friday, November 7, 5:46 PM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert enters Week 10 aiming to maintain his efficient performance against a Pittsburgh Steelers defense that has shown vulnerabilities through the air. Despite Pittsburgh ranking last in passing yards allowed per game and 27th in fantasy points per dropback on deep passes, they recently improved by beating the league's top offense, the Indianapolis Colts, last week. Herbert's protection remains a significant concern, with tackle Joe Alt out for the season, and the Chargers trading for the inconsistent yet necessary Trevor Penning. The offensive line, which allowed six sacks last week, has forced Herbert (who already leads all quarterbacks in rushing yards) to use his legs to extend plays and gain yardage. After a solid 250-yard, three-touchdown performance, Herbert's efficiency and rushing floor make him a strong start. RotoBaller projects Herbert as QB5 this week, and he remains a high-end QB1.
