Justin Herbert has been a fantasy dud all year as the QB27 in fantasy points per game. He hasn't had more than 14.3 fantasy points in any game this season. Among 34 qualifying passers, Herbert has the ninth-lowest yards per attempt, the fifth-lowest passing touchdown rate (tied with Baker Mayfield), and the third-fewest fantasy points per dropback (tied with Jalon Daniels). I don't really care what the matchup is right now for Herbert. He has been commanding a broken offense. I need to see him actually post a decent stat line before I'd plug him into a fantasy lineup. Sit him again this week.

Justin Herbert throws two interceptions Sunday

Justin Herbert completed 24-of-32 passing attempts for 257 yards and two interceptions in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

Fantasy Impact

Herbert had another poor showing on Sunday. He threw two interceptions and wasn't able to lead the Chargers to a single touchdown over the Rams, and the team now drops to a dismal 0-7 on the season as a result. He should not be rostered or started in any league formats as this nightmare season continues for the Chargers.
