Tonight at 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN, Hebert and the 8-4 Chargers take on the 8-4 Philadelphia Eagles in a Monday Night Football matchup that both teams will be looking to win to cement their playoff hopes.
In the Los Angeles Chargers’ Week 13 win against the Las Vegas Raiders, QB Justin Herbert suffered a fractured bone in his non-throwing hand. The Chargers were quick to update the situation at the start of the week, noting that while their superstar QB would undergo surgery on his hand, with the current expectation being that he would be available to take the field in Week 14.
Let’s get a Justin Herbert injury update and see what we could expect from the former first-round pick, including Herbert’s PrizePicks projections for this crucial MNF showdown.
Will Justin Herbert Play in Week 14 vs. Eagles?
As of Monday morning, Herbert is expected to suit up and take the field against the Eagles on Monday Night Football.
Injury analysts have speculated that due to the surgery, Herbert will experience some offensive limitations. The sixth-year QB will undoubtedly want to protect the hand and get the ball out as quickly as possible, as well as put a heavier emphasis on the run game.
Justin Herbert Fantasy Outlook, Projections for Week 14
After suffering the injury last week, Herbert took every snap in shotgun formation for the rest of the game. This limits his offensive effectiveness, as head coach Jim Harbaugh noted that going away from their under-center plan could remove a handful of plays from the offensive playbook.
Herbert threw for his second-lowest number of the 2025 NFL season in the win against the Raiders, totaling only 151 passing yards. After suffering the injury, he only attempted 1 pass deeper than 20 yards, focusing on the short passing game, as well as a heavy dose of RB Kimani Vidal.
The Eagles are coming off a Week 13 loss to the Chicago Bears, where they allowed over 250 rushing yards. With 2025 first-round rookie Omarion Hampton set to return from a multi-month ankle injury, the Chargers could lean on him and Vidal against the Eagles to try and take the ball out of Herbert’s hands to attempt to limit any further injury.
