What happened with Justin Herbert during his game against the New Orleans Saints is why the league has to protect them so much.
On Sunday, Saints defensive end Nathan Shepherd could be seen holding onto the Chargers quarterback by his right leg well after he had gotten rid of the ball.
Nathan Shepherd then gator rolled his leg until he fell onto the turf.
While Justin Herbert waited for a flag, his teammate, center Bradley Bozeman, saw what was happening and came in to destroy Shepherd for what he did.
