Justin Herbert is not expected to play Thursday night against the Las Vegas Raiders due to his fractured right index finger, according to a source.

The Los Angeles Chargers quarterback is very likely to undergo surgery on his fractured finger Tuesday. Whether Herbert will have any chance to able to return this season will be determined by the surgery.

Brandon Staley said that Herbert would see two hand specialists Monday and that the team would make a decision on Herbert's status for Thursday after receiving the information from those specialists.

"All of our focus has got to be on his future," Staley said. "Certainly, there's nothing more important than that, than his right hand. And his long-term future. He's 25 years old and he's got a really, really bright future in front of him. So, like I said, every decision we make is going to be with that in mind."
