Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has been cleared to play in Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers despite a right ankle injury sustained in the previous week's victory over the Carolina Panthers. Herbert was seen testing his ankle on the Acrisure Stadium turf before the game, indicating his readiness to take the field.
The injury occurred in the third quarter of the game against the Panthers, but Herbert managed to finish the game. He had limited participation in practice this week, focusing on light throwing and managing the swelling and pain in his ankle with icing and compression.
