Herbert suffered an injury to the plantar fascia of his right foot. This is likely a partial tear of the plantar fascia. The plantar fascia is responsible for maintaining the arch on the bottom of your foot. This is a very painful and quite debilitating injury that will shut Herbert down for several weeks, likely most of the preseason. I dropped him in my QB rankings a couple spots already. I expect him to be put in a boot for about 2 weeks and then work with physical therapy for another week or two. This is likely going to lead to a full thickness tear, which is actually better because it won't hurt anymore. However, until that happens Herbert's going to struggle to run, move in the pocket and this might impact his throwing velocity since this is on his back/power leg. As of now I still think he starts Week 1.
