Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert suffered a finger injury that could influence the team's strategic direction for the remainder of the 2026 NFL season, according to reports. The injury raises the possibility that the Chargers may consider a tanking approach to secure a higher draft position.
Herbert was photographed throwing a pass during the first half of the Chargers' game against the Houston Texans at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, on November 8, 2026. The extent of the injury and the team's official response have not been disclosed.
