Chargers’ Keenan Allen impressed by Justin Herbert’s toughness before MNF

The Los Angeles Chargers have been wondering if Justin Herbert will suit up after having surgery on his left hand last week, and it looks like he is expected to play against the Philadelphia Eagles. One of his teammates, Keenan Allen, already believed that Herbert would tough it out and play, and has always been impressed by his quarterback’s toughness.

“His toughness has been through the roof,” Allen said on ESPN. “I remember his first game here on this field, he runs through a linebacker head-on, and the linebacker gets hurt… It’s impressive for sure, but it’s nothing we don’t see every day. I knew when he came back last game that he was going to play this week.
