The 23-year-old Chargers quarterback has just made his name in the NFL since he was drafted as a No. 6 overall pick. However, he is living exactly what he had hoped for when he was in the fourth grade.

His predictions of being a football player and living in Los Angeles have been proven to be true since the day he got drafted by the Chargers. Evidently, his prediction for his desired height has gone wrong, as he hoped to be 6’3 when actually he came to be 6’6.

Let alone all the predictions, it would be fair to say that Herbert, who completed his 500th pass on Monday Night Football, in only 19 NFL starts, is without a doubt a feat accomplished by a future NFL superstar. He has become the first quarterback in the Super Bowl era to reach 500 completions before 20 NFL starts.

Herbert’s season so far has been on an upward trajectory as he is delivering a better performance every time he hits the field. In his Week 4 clash with the Raiders, Justin finished with a three-touchdown game with 222 yards covering and completing 25 of 38 passes.
