Los Angeles Chargers vs Washington Football Team: Injury report and starting line up - September 12th | NFL Week 1 

Baltimore Ravens v Washington Football Team
Baltimore Ravens v Washington Football Team

Justin Herbert had a rather good rookie season in 2020, leading the Chargers to a 7-9 record in a tough division that had Patrick Mahomes and Derek Carr. Many expect Herbert to take another step forward in his development after his stellar rookie season.

For Washington, having veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will certainly help the offense to an extent, however, defense is where Washington's true strength lies.

With Chase Young doing what he likes on the offensive line and Jonathan Allen helping, Washington is a scary proposition for opposing offenses.

Brandon Staley has only one player on the injury report and that is defensive back Ryan Smith, who is not expected back until Week 4.

So Herbert and the Chargers are in a great position to start their 2021 season with a bang.

Washington Football Team

Head coach Ron Rivera essentially has a full roster to choose from for Sunday's opener against the Chargers.

Only defensive back Darrick Forrest is out with a hamstring injury and is expected back in Week 4.
