Team news: Los Angeles Chargers

Chargers RB Kimani Vidal, who left Sunday's win over the Cowboys early, was diagnosed with a neck strain and is considered day-to-day, source says after the MRI.

Vidal could miss time, but the belief is that it's not serious, the post went on to say. He'll be worth monitoring this week in practice, but it looks like Hampton could see a bigger workload with Haskins mixing in as the team's RB2.

It’s been trending this way all week, but the Chargers will officially have their staring quarterback when they play the Eagles on Monday night.

Quarterback Justin Herbert is active and set to start despite undergoing surgery to repair his fractured left hand last Monday.

The story said during pregame warmups, Herbert has been sporting a balky glove with extra protection on his left hand. But he has also been simulating taking snaps from under center. Herbert was a limited participant in all three days of practice this week before being listed as questionable.

We've elevated Omarion Hampton, Hassan Haskins and Otito Ogbonnia from injured reserve.

Hampton looks to be good to go for Monday night in what could be a favorable matchup against the Eagles defense that was run over by the Bears last week, and will also be without DT Jalen Carter. It remains to be seen what Hampton's workload could look like, and it's possible Vidal and Haskins are involved too.

Chargers RB Omarion Hampton (questionable, ankle) is expected to play Monday against the Eagles.

Hampton has not played since Week 5. He practiced in full on Friday and Saturday. He’ll face an Eagles defense that will be without star defensive tackle Jalen Carter. However, it remains to be seen how quickly he gets back into game shape. The Chargers could very well use some sort of committee between Hampton and Kimani Vidal. We have Hampton as RB27 this week.

Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (left hand) is listed as questionable for Monday’s game against the Eagles.

The team is optimistic about his chances of playing Monday. He was limited in practice all week, wearing a brace throughout. However, a combination of the injury and a typically strong Eagles defense means you should show caution about using Herbert this week. He’s a fine 2-QB league option. He ranks No. 17 on our board.

Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh told reporters that his QB Justin Herbert, who underwent surgery on a broken bone in his left hand Monday, will not practice today, even if he will be on the field for a walk through. The Chargers are not ready to say whether Hebert will be able to play Monday night versus the Eagles.

Herbert was already trending toward QB20 land, but Lance behind this battered offensive line would be even worse than that. Ladd McConkey may be the only name we can trust in the Chargers' offense at this stage.

It’s currently viewed as likely that Chargers starting running back Omarion Hampton will be able return to action and play next Monday when the team faces the Eagles, sources tell CBS Sports.

Hampton has missed the last seven games with an ankle injury. The Chargers will probably welcome back Hampton with a nice workload, especially with QB Justin Herbert in question because of a hand injury. The Bolts are playing the Eagles who just allowed two, 100-yard rushers to the Bears on Black Friday. The only negative is this is a Monday night game, so Hampton owners will want to back themselves up just to be safe. Vidal will likely have a role in this game as well, especially of Herbert isn't able to play.

In a statement, the Chargers said: “Chargers QB Justin Herbert underwent successful surgery today in Los Angeles to stabilize a fracture in his left hand. Herbert’s return to play is considered day-to-day, and his status for next Monday’s game against Philadelphia will be determined later in the week.” Herbert injured his left hand in the first series at the end of a 1-yard scramble when Panthers defensive back Jeremy Chinn slammed the quarterback to the ground. Herbert’s hand banged against the turf, the story described. Herbert owners could be in a tough spot since the game is on Monday night, especially if Herbert comes down to a game-time call. Hopefully we know more as the week goes on.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert suffered a broken bone in his left hand during Sunday’s game against the Raiders, head coach Jim Harbaugh said after the game.

Herbert will undergo surgery on Monday and it is unclear at this point how much time he will miss. Consider him questionable at best for next Monday against the Eagles. If Herbert can’t go, it would be Trey Lance getting the start. Herbert barely missed any action Sunday — Lance threw one pass — completing 15 of 20 passes for 151 yards with two touchdowns and one interception.
