On Friday, Justin Herbert revealed he has a high right ankle sprain.
Herbert said it’s “yet to be decided” whether he’ll play on Sunday against the Steelers. He added the pain is “not great.”
On the injury report, Herbert is listed as questionable.
Jim Harbaugh said Herbert is doing everything he can to get ready to play. Harbaugh added he has “a lot of faith” in Easton Stick and Taylor Heinicke but wouldn’t reveal any of the contingencies.
Herbert sustained the injury in the Week 2 victory over the Panthers. He also suffered a plantar fascia injury on the same side that kept him sidelined for most of training camp.
