00:00Justin Herbert will play.
00:04What does that mean for Josh Palmer?
00:06What does that mean for some of the ancillary receivers?
00:07What does that mean for the total in the game?
00:09You and I see an upset here, but take it away, Joe.
00:13Yeah, Justin Herbert is going to play.
00:14The plantar fascia is a real injury
00:16and it's an injury that could linger throughout the year.
00:18I know he's gotten treatment on it,
00:19but typically this is something that takes weeks to subside
00:22and usually weeks of rest.
00:23And that's one thing you're not gonna see.
00:24I would also keep an eye on Justin Herbert
00:26practicing a lot the next couple of weeks.
00:28You could see a lot of limited practices in his future
00:31just to make sure he's ready for game day.
00:32So don't panic if that's the case.
00:34I think that's a little bit more
00:35of the management of the foot issue.
00:38Don't pretend like these little foot issues
00:40aren't big issues.
00:41Historically speaking, these foot issues
00:43really crush people's seasons.
00:45I'm not saying it's gonna happen with Herbert.
00:47Maybe it was a mild situation.
00:48He's getting the best treatment you possibly can get.
00:50He's in the NFL.
00:52They have the best doctors, the best treatment people,
00:53the best training people, of course.
00:55But more to the point too,
00:57this is gonna be a very different looking offense.
01:00I think people are a little too far
01:02in the Greg Roman column of,
01:04oh my God, they're only gonna throw the football
01:05four times a game.
01:06Of course they're not.
01:07Like, come on.
01:08Yeah, they're gonna be run heavy,
01:10but that's also out of necessity right now
01:12because you don't have Keenan Allen anymore.
01:13So you're gonna have to go look elsewhere.
01:15Josh Palmer's in line for a lot of targets today.
01:17I like him as a DFS player.
01:18I like him also as a potential flex play in PPR leagues.
01:22If you need somebody, I think he's a good spot.
01:24But we'll see what Ladd McConkie is going to be.
01:28Also of note too, in this same Charger team,
01:30DJ Charco's on the pup list last night.
01:32So that was something that people didn't see coming.
01:34So who knows?
01:35Maybe you do get to see Quentin Johnson
01:37make a case for his roster spot after all.
01:40But I imagine it's a lot of the running backs by committee,
01:44Edwards, Dobbins, maybe you get a little Vidal,
01:47but a lot of Josh Palmer today.
01:49But again, I don't know how excited that makes us.
01:51That's why I like the Raiders in this game today.
