QB Justin Herbert breaks bone in left hand, but he’s optimistic about playing for Chargers next week
November 30, 2025
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will have surgery Monday to repair a broken bone in his non-throwing hand. Herbert is optimistic about his chances to play next week for the Chargers, who beat the Raiders 31-14 for their fourth victory in five games. Herbert played the final three quarters against Las Vegas with a hard cast on his left hand while exclusively taking shotgun snaps. Herbert wasn’t sure when his hand was broken, but it appeared to happen late in the Chargers’ opening drive when he was thrown to the ground by Raiders safety Jeremy Chinn.
