Justin Herbert hurt his leg when it was 'rolled up on,' said coach Jim Harbaugh, but the Chargers quarterback's status for the Steelers game is a mystery.
Rain and high winds pounded North Carolina early Monday with forecasters warning the weather system could grow into a tropical storm. Those weren’t the only dark clouds hovering over the Chargers’ downtown hotel. Justin Herbert limped out of the stadium after a 26-3 win over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday and, although X-rays were negative, according to coach Jim Harbaugh the quarterback’s status going forward isn’t clear. “He got rolled up on,” Harbaugh said.
“It wouldn't work if people were opposed to it. And our guys haven't been,” Harbaugh said. “They were like, 'Hey, let's do that. That would be fun.’” The advantages go well beyond full practices and less travel, though. “Getting the body clock right. That’s the main reason for doing it,” Harbaugh said. “Some of the studies, by people a lot smarter than me, have figured out that's a good way to do it.
