JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—Justin Herbert sat in silence at his locker for roughly 15 minutes, staring into the distance following the lost on Jan. 14. He had taken off his cleats but was still wearing most of his grass-stained uniform.
It was a defining scene for a team devastated by a collapse no one could have seen coming. And it made this much clear: Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers won’t get over this loss—the third-largest blown lead in postseason history—anytime soon.
