Justin Herbert has a postseason record of 0-2 as of January 2025.

Justin Patrick Herbert is an American football quarterback for the Los Angeles Chargers as of 2024. The 6-foot-6 signal caller had an amazing start to his NFL career after getting selected sixth overall in the 2020 NFL draft. Herbert broke the rookie passing touchdown record by throwing for 31 TDs that year and was honored with the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. However, the team finished with a 6-9 record and saw head coach Anthony Lynn fired by the end of the season. With a new voice in the locker room in Brandon Staley, Herbert started his sophomore campaign where he left off the previous year. He finished his second season with a career-high 38 passing touchdowns, per Pro Football Reference. This time his efforts didn’t go in vain as the team added 3 more games to the win column compared to 2021. Nevertheless, the team came up short and missed the playoffs by a whisker, losing 32-25 in OT against the Las Vegas Raiders in a winner goes to playoffs scenario.

The 2022 season saw Herbert leading the Chargers to a double-digit win for the first time in his career as LA finished the season with a 10-7 record, as recorded by Pro Football Reference. After signing a 5-year, $262.5 million contract (via Spotrac), his 2023 season was cut short due to suffering a broken index finger on his throwing hand. In his short NFL career, Herbert has three 4k passing yard seasons, including 2022, where he threw for over 5k yards, as recorded by Pro Football reference. The Eugene, Oregon native played collegiate football for his home state team Oregon Ducks from 2016 to 2019. According to Sports Reference, he threw for over 10,500 yards and recorded 108 total touchdowns with the Ducks.
