The Chargers quarterback, who threw for 151 yards, two scores and an interception, left the game in the first quarter, but returned in the second. He also said he expects to play in Week 14.

"They are hopeful, so I think that's a good thing," Herbert said, when asked about the Chargers' optimism about his injury.
