Chargers' Justin Herbert to face Bucs despite injuries

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert, who has been dealing with a left ankle sprain and a left thigh contusion, was a full participant in Friday's practice and is off the team's final injury report, clearing the way for him to play Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"He's got the strength of 10 men," coach Jim Harbaugh said.

Herbert missed Wednesday's practice with the injuries and was limited Thursday, putting his status in question. When he returned to practice Thursday, his left ankle was heavily taped, and he wore a black sleeve on his left leg, though he had worn that sleeve throughout the season.
