This week, NFL fans are buzzing over the matchup between two brothers on opposing teams. Justin Herbert, the quarterback for the Los Angeles Chargers, will face his brother, Patrick Herbert, who plays tight end for the Jacksonville Jaguars. This family rivalry adds a unique twist to their Week 11 game.
Sibling Showdown: Justin vs. Patrick Herbert
Patrick Herbert, a former Oregon player, has spent this NFL season on the Jaguars’ practice squad. He has not yet made his regular-season debut. However, with injuries sidelining tight ends Brenton Strange and Hunter Long, Patrick may finally get the chance to play.
Patrick’s Perspective on the NFL Journey
In an interview, Patrick shared his thoughts about competing against Justin. He expressed pride in his brother’s accomplishments. “I think we kinda take it for granted sometimes looking at him and being like, ‘Oh he’s been in the league for 5-6 years.’ I think it’s a big accomplishment. That’s so cool,” he commented.
Jacksonville Jaguars’ Tight End Situation
The Jaguars are currently in need of tight end support. With two players injured, the team could elevate Patrick to the gameday roster. This would mark a significant moment for both brothers and a show of brotherly affection.
