NFL: The Insiders on Justin Herbert

Herbert's 43.8% pressure rate is career-high and wearing him down despite QB1 class status.

Herbert has been pressured on 43.8% of his dropbacks this season, the second-highest rate among qualified quarterbacks and above his previous career high of 41.2% last season. The source notes he appears worn down by the offensive line struggles and pressure, describing him as looking "worn out" despite a large sample size of previous greatness. At 0-5, the Chargers' vibes are at their worst, though the source still considers Herbert QB1 in his draft class and is not moving off him after five games.
