Justin Herbert nearly gets blindsided during a Chargers practice session after a teammate appears to move into his line as he prepares for a drill. Footage shared online shows Herbert setting up for a snap-like action when an unexpected movement occurs close to him, prompting concern for the quarterback’s safety.
Multiple outlets describe the clip as “bizarre” and focus on how unusual camera footage can be from practice environments. Yahoo Sports and the New York Post both attribute the video to ESPN’s Kris Rhim, who posts the moment for audiences to see. The reports emphasize that the incident happens during a team drill rather than in a game, and they frame the scene as an example of how quickly situations can develop on the practice field. Both also note the reaction among fans to having access to behind-the-scenes content that captures near-miss moments.
While the accounts agree on the existence of the practice scare and the general sequence shown in the video, they do not provide new, confirmed details about any injury or disciplinary outcome in the excerpts provided.
