The team later said Herbert would not miss any time.<\/p>\n<p>The injury occurred when Herbert&#8217;s ill-fated, under-pressure pass landed in the arms of Raiders safety Trevon Moehrig, sparking a chaotic return effort in which Herbert ended up being blocked by both Maxx Crosby and Adam Butler, knocking the quarterback to the ground.<\/p>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              The First Read: Biggest challenge facing each division leader at quarter mark of 2023 NFL season            <\/li>\n<li>              2023 NFL season, Week 4: What We Learned from Sunday&#x27;s games            <\/li>\n<li>              NFL stats and records, Week 4: Bills, Josh Allen re-establish divisional dominance; Stefon Diggs ties record            <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After the Chargers held on to win the game &#8212; in which Herbert did not miss a snap &#8212; he took a lighthearted approach when asked about the injury, which he explained did not happen was a result of being stepped on.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;Tis but a scratch, just a flesh wound,&#8221; Herbert said on Sunday, quoting the British comedy film <em>Monty Python and the Holy Grail<\/em>. &#8220;Got it stuck in the helmet. Thankful for all the doctors and all of the trainers out there that helped me get through that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Herbert returned to the game wearing a glove and a splint on the affected finger, and was bothered by it enough to take his victory formation snaps from the shotgun.<\/p>\n<p>It also wasn&#8217;t the worst contact he&#8217;d received in that game. In the first half, former teammate and current Raiders defensive tackle Jerry Tillery drilled Herbert when the quarterback was already out of bounds, causing a scuffle along the Chargers sideline and prompting officials to eject Tillery.<\/p>\n<p>As Herbert quipped afterward, though, he&#8217;s as determined as the Black Knight from the legendary comedic scene, filled to the brim with confidence and determination. It required playing through a bit of pain Sunday, pain he&#8217;ll hope dissipates by the time the Chargers host the Cowboys in Week 6.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/chargers-qb-justin-herbert-suffered-fractured-finger-on-left-hand-not-expected-t\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Justin Herbert&#8217;s worst throw of 2023 ended in an interception and an injury, but there&#8217;s good news: He&#8217;s not expected to miss any game time.
