Herbert will make a decision about whether to have a pain-killing shot in his fractured cartilage during pregame warm-ups before Sunday’s 4:05 ET start. This will allow him to play against the Jaguars in Week 3. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
Mike Garafolo, NFL Network’s Schefter, and Mike Garafolo both suggest that Herbert is pressing to play. However, at this stage Herbert appears to be a game-time decision.
Fantasy managers who are considering Herbert in Week 3 lineups should have a contingency strategy in place. Chase Daniel would draw the assignment if Herbert was unable to play Sunday.
