Justin Herbert has the Worst Game of his Career Before Much-Needed Bye

Tuesday, November 18, 12:33 AM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert had his worst performance of the season in the team's 35-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, completing just 10 of 18 passes for 81 yards and an interception before being pulled from the game in the second half. It was the first game this season without a passing touchdown for him, and only the eighth in his career. Herbert led the team in rushing with 21 yards, highlighting the offense's overall inefficiency. The Chargers managed only eight first downs, held the ball for just 22 minutes, and reached the red zone only once. Herbert was constantly under pressure behind an injured, overmatched offensive line that has now allowed 35 sacks this season. He was briefly evaluated for a concussion at the end of the first half after a sack, but returned to start the second half. Herbert and the Bolts get a much-needed bye in Week 12.

Bryce Young a Full Participant Despite Ankle Injury

Thursday, November 20, 8:25 PM

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Thursday, according to the team's website. The former No. 1 pick was listed on the injury report with the ankle injury he suffered in last Sunday's win against the Atlanta Falcons, but it didn't prevent him from getting on the field in preparation for Week 12 against the San Francisco 49ers. Fantasy managers should monitor how his ankle responds to the next two days of practice, but all signs point to him suiting up on Monday night. He'll look to build off last week's terrific showing that included 448 passing yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He has QB1 upside, but for now, he ranks in the mid-to-low QB2 tier.
