According to sources, the Los Angeles Clippers quarterback is expected to make a decision during the warm-ups on Sunday about whether to take a pain-killing injection in order to play in the game.
A source said Herbert was pushing to play. There was growing skepticism about Herbert's status going into the weekend; the decision to play has bounced back and forth all week.
Herbert was injured against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2 when he took a hit from Mike Danna that left him lying on the field.
Herbert is considered questionable for the game.
"It's day by day, just waiting to see how he feels," the coach said. We are going to progress through the rest of the week.
Herbert isn't expected to have his center, who is doubtful with a knee injury, according to the report.
It's not certain that Allen will play, but he would like to, according to the report. J.C. Jackson is questionable and not expected to play.
