NFL injury report: Justin Herbert to be game-time decision after missed practice, while Chris Godwin is ruled out

Most NFL teams delivered their final injury reports of the week on Friday. Here's who is playing and who is not among the league's biggest names, starting with a quarterback who seems to be fighting through plenty of pain to stay on the field.

Chargers injuries: Justin Herbert questionable after rib injury

Many wondered how Justin Herbert managed to keep playing last Thursday despite a clear injury to his side on a rough hit from the Kansas City Chiefs, but it's not clear if he will able to keep going on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Herbert, who is said to be day-to-day with a "rib cartilage fracture," was ruled questionable after being limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, then not participating on Friday.

Herbert himself said he will be a true game-time decision on Sunday.

Cornerback J.C. Jackson is also doubtful to play after returning last week from an ankle injury, while wide receiver Keenan Allen is questionable with the hamstring injury that kept him out in Week 2.
