Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was a limited practice participant on Thursday, three days after undergoing left hand surgery.
The team termed Herbert as day-to-day after the surgery, but he is counting on playing in Monday night's home game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
During the surgery, Herbert had a plate and multiple screws inserted into his non-throwing hand.
"As long as it's stabilized and fixed and the doctors feel comfortable with it, then I think you can move on to just playing and just trying not to focus on it too much," Herbert told reporters on Wednesday.
Herbert was injured during Sunday's 31-14 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders.
Trey Lance would be the starting quarterback against the Eagles if Herbert can't play.
Herbert, 27, has passed for 2,842
