Chargers commit to Justin Herbert amid trade speculation after 0-2 start
Summary

The Los Angeles Chargers reaffirmed their commitment to quarterback Justin Herbert despite concerns following an 0-2 start to the season.

The Chargers face a challenging upcoming schedule against top opponents, which adds pressure to their performance. NFL experts suggest that if the season does not improve, the team may face difficult decisions about their future at quarterback.
