Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert finished their Week 13 win over the Las Vegas Raiders with a broken bone in his hand. But after having surgery to repair it this week, head coach Jim Harbaugh said he’s “ optimistic,” Herbert can play on ‘Monday Night Football,’ against Philadelphia.

With the AFC West-leading Denver Broncos (10-2) getting their turn to play the lowly-Raiders in Week 14, the Chargers (8-4) face a near must-win against the defending Super Bowl champions. With those stakes, it would take quite a bit to keep Herbert off of the field.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Herbert is one of the few quarterbacks in NFL history to surpass the 5,000-passing-yard mark in a single season. How many of those quarterbacks can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
