Justin Herbert's job got considerably harder on Sunday.
The Los Angeles Chargers quarterback started Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars as a game-time decision after tearing rib cartilage in Week 2. He then lost his blind-side protection in the second half. Left tackle Rashawn Slater left the game in the third quarter with a biceps injury and was listed as questionable to return. The Chargers also lost All-Pro pass rusher Joey Bosa, who exited in the first with a groin injury and was ruled out after halftime.
Add them to a list of key injures for the Chargers, who started Sunday with No. 1 receiver Keenan Allen and Pro Bowl cornerback J.C. Jackson also sidelined.
