Los Angeles Rams safety Quentin Lake delivered a blunt assessment of Justin Herbert's play after the Chargers' loss to the Rams, saying the quarterback "was throwing deli meat" during the two-interception defeat. Lake made the comments on the "St. Brown Podcast," adding that Herbert appeared to be "seeing ghosts" on the field.
Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh disagreed with Lake's characterization of his quarterback's performance. The game, which featured Herbert throwing two interceptions, took place as the Chargers fell to their SoFi Stadium co-tenants.
Lake's remarks represent some of the harshest public criticism Herbert has faced from an opponent this season. The fourth-year quarterback has been a Pro Bowl selection but has faced scrutiny over turnovers in key games.
