COSTA MESA, Calif. — Justin Herbert will visit two hand specialists on Monday after the Chargers quarterback fractured the index finger on his right hand during the second quarter of Los Angeles' 24-7 loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Coach Brandon Staley said Monday morning that he would wait until those visits were completed before he made a decision on Herbert's status for Thursday night's game at the Las Vegas Raiders. The Chargers are 5-8 and have dropped four of their past five. If Herbert is unable to go, backup Easton Stick seems likely to become only the Chargers' fourth starting quarterback since 2006.
