Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will have surgery Monday to repair a broken bone in his non-throwing hand.
Herbert is optimistic about his chances to play next week for the Chargers (8-4), who beat the Raiders 31-14 on Sunday for their fourth victory in five games. Herbert played the final three quarters against Las Vegas with a hard cast on his left hand while exclusively taking shotgun snaps.
"I think it's one of those things where you just stabilize it (and play)," Herbert said. "I'm not the doctor, unfortunately, but they were hopeful, so I think that's a good thing."
