Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is the third NFL player to have his rookie card sold for over $1 million. The 24-year-old joins an elite club of Patrick Mahomes ($4.3 million) and Tom Brady ($2.3 million) with his $1.8 million tag. 

Earlier, two of his Panini cards were sold for $1.8 million and $1.1 million. However, the rising talent has a rib carriage fracture. His participation in Week 3 remains doubtful.

In July 2021, Patrick Mahomes fetched $4.3 million for a 1-of-1 rookie card. The 2017 card was sold by Panini National Treasurers. The NFL GOAT Brady also possesses the record for the most expensive used NFL jersey of all time. His autographed jersey from the 2020 regular season sold with the auction house, Goldin, raised $480,000. The youngster has often shared his admiration for TB12 and Patrick Mahomes. This feat would make him the third costliest rookie card in the NFL.

Injury concerns loom large for Justin Herbert

The promising QB is likely to be out this week owing to injury. He is now listed as questionable to face the Jaguars on Sunday. However, the team is monitoring his progress daily. Herbert was limited in practice in the last two days. He was seen throwing a variety of passes, but other than that, he was not active. If he misses out, veteran backup Chase Daniel is expected to start on Sunday.

The talented QB is likely to make a return in Week 4. This is when his team takes on the Texans. The chargers will have to look into their reserve options as they face Jaguars on Sunday.
