Still limited at practice Herbert (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Impact Herbert, who was also listed as limited Wednesday, previously noted that he is "doing everything he can" to play Sunday against the Chiefs despite having aggravated his high right ankle sprain during Week 3 action, per Kris Rhim of ESPN. With the Chargers on bye in Week 5, Herbert acknowledged Wednesday that the team has had discussions about him possibly sitting out Sunday in order to rest his ankle, but the QB noted he doesn't "think that's the way we're heading." Friday's injury report will add further context regarding Herbert's Week 4 status, but chances are, he'll head into the weekend listed as questionable. Taylor Heinicke would presumably start versus Kansas City in the event Herbert ends up being deemed unavailable for Los Angeles' 4:25 ET contest.

Practices in limited capacity Herbert (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Impact Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Herbert indicated Wednesday that his ankle feels better than it did at this stage last week, while adding that he's feeling "less pain" and was able to do some 7-on-7 work during his limited session. In terms of the notion that the Chargers could consider resting Herbert this weekend with the team on bye in Week 5, the QB noted that he "doesn't think that's the way we're heading" as Sunday's game against the Chiefs approaches, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Making progress Coach Jim Harbaugh noted Wednesday that the MRI Herbert (ankle) underwent Monday revealed that the QB is "progressing," Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Impact With that in mind, Harbaugh added that Herbert -- who has shed his walking boot -- might do some things in practice Wednesday. It remains to be seen how the team lists Herbert's participation level, but either way, the signal-caller's status will need to be monitored closely ahead of Sunday's 4:25 ET kickoff against the Chiefs. After Herbert aggravated his ankle injury in the Chargers' Week 3 loss to the Steelers, Taylor Heinicke took over the team's QB duties.
