Officially questionable for Week 11 Taylor (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact Taylor managed to suit up as Los Angeles' No. 2 quarterback Week 10 despite his lingering ribs injury, but he can't be considered a lock to take the field against the Jets. Easton Stick will slot in as the backup to Justin Herbert if Taylor can't go.

Ribs still bothersome Taylor was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a rib injury, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Taylor was able to suit up behind starting Justin Herbert for last Sunday's game against the Raiders, but he appears to still be battling the rib issue that forced him to miss games early in the season. The veteran will look to get healthy, but it appears he'll only have a chance to see the field again this season with an injury or poor play from Herbert. If Taylor was too miss Week 11, Easton Stick would assume back up duties for the contest.

Will dress against Raiders Coach Anthony Lynn confirmed Friday that Taylor (chest) will back up Justin Herbert against the Raiders on Sunday, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Taylor was inactive for the past two games despite practicing fully, but he'll finally be active again in this battle of recently relocated west coast teams. He's unlikely to see the field barring an injury to Herbert, as the rookie has hit the ground running as a starter.

Practicing fully again Taylor (chest) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Taylor practiced fully in each of the last two weeks but was ultimately inactive, and that should be the expected regimen at this point. The 31-year-old quarterback hasn't played since a team doctor punctured his lung with a pain-killing injection prior to the Week 2 matchup against the Chiefs. If Taylor sits out again Sunday versus the Raiders, Easton Stick will back up Justin Herbert.

Not suiting up Sunday Taylor (chest) is inactive for Sunday's game at Denver, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 31-year-old was considered questionable after practicing as a full participant all week for the second straight week, but he's once again inactive. Easton Stick will once again serve as the backup to Justin Herbert with Taylor not in uniform.

Questionable again Week 8 Taylor (chest) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Broncos.

Impact Taylor practiced fully all week, but he followed the same course last week and was ultimately inactive, as he's still working his way back from the punctured lung he sustained when a team doctor misplaced a pain-killing injection ahead of a Week 2 loss to the Chiefs. It wouldn't be surprising if Taylor is inactive once again, which would make Easton Stick the backup to Justin Herbert on Sunday.

Full participant Wednesday Taylor (ribs) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Taylor practiced fully last Wednesday but was ultimately inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, so he's not in the clear yet. The 31-year-old quarterback hasn't played since a team doctor accidentally punctured his lung while administering a pain-killing injection prior to a Week 2 matchup against the Chiefs. If Taylor sits out again, Easton Stick will serve as Justin Herbert's backup again Sunday versus Denver.

Won't go against Jaguars Taylor (ribs/chest) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Jacksonville.

Impact The 31-year-old signal-caller has been inactive since a team doctor accidentally punctured his lung with a pain-killing injection prior to Week 2's matchup against the Chiefs. Though Taylor was capable of logging a full practice session Wednesday, the outlook of his injury has not progressed to the point where he is ready for game action. North Dakota State standout Easton Stick will serve as the backup quarterback Sunday should an injury arise to starter Justin Herbert.

Questionable for Week 7 Taylor (ribs/chest) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.

Impact If Taylor's active for the first time since having his lung punctured by a pain-killing injection prior to Week 2, he will back up rookie Justin Herbert, who topped 300 yards in his first two starts and added a 7:1 TD:INT in the two subsequent games. Depending on Taylor's health, the Chargers could opt to keep third-stringer Easton Stick active as well.

Upgraded Wednesday Taylor (ribs/chest) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice.

Impact Taylor had missed the past four games before the team's bye week after a pain-killing injection accidentally punctured his lung prior to the start of the Week 2 game against the Chiefs. It's certainly a great sign to see Taylor back healthy, but coach Anthony Lynn already confirmed earlier this season that Justin Herbert will be the team's starting quarterback moving forward. With Taylor returning, he'll assume backup duties for Week 7 with Easton Stick relegated to the clear No. 3 option at quarterback.

Out once more Taylor (ribs/chest) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's contest against the Saints, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact Taylor will miss his fourth consecutive game due to the pain-killing injection which accidentally punctured his lung prior to the start of the Week 2 game against the Chiefs. More importantly, coach Anthony Lynn confirmed earlier this week that No. 6 overall pick Justin Herbert would be the starter moving forward once Taylor returned from injury. Easton Stick will act as the primary backup to Herbert on Monday.
