What It Means:

Herbert suffered the injury on a fourth-quarter kick return and did not play another snap, but it's unclear as of this moment just how serious the injury is. The talented second-year back was spotted walking with a limp following the game, though head coach Matt Eberflus declined to comment on Herbert's status heading into Week 11.

Herbert has worked his way into a near-even committee with teammate David Montgomery over the course of the season, and has significantly outproduced Montgomery in his opportunities. He has 643 yards and 4 touchdowns on 108 touches, while Montgomery has produced 434 yards and 2 touchdowns on 115 carries. Montgomery has offered more than Herbert as a pass-catcher, however, and the team appears to be willing to split the backs' opportunities almost down the middle over the past few games. If Herbert misses time, Montgomery would likely see close to 20 touches per game.
