Chargers QB Justin Herbert (ankle) active vs. Steelers

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is active for Sunday's game against the host Pittsburgh Steelers despite nursing a high-ankle sprain.

Multiple media outlets reported Herbert is expected to start the game after he was seen jogging without a limp during pregame activities.

Herbert, who officially was listed as questionable, said Friday that he was unsure if he would play for the Chargers (2-0) on Sunday. Fellow quarterbacks Easton Stick and Taylor Heinicke also are active for Sunday's game.

Herbert, 26, did not miss a snap after having his legs trapped under Carolina Panthers linebacker DJ Johnson during Los Angeles' 26-3 victory at Carolina last weekend.

The Pro Bowl quarterback has completed 67.4 percent of his passes for 274 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in two games this season.

While Herbert is active, the Chargers listed the following players as inactive: wide receiver Joshua Palmer, linebacker Junior Colson, cornerback Tarheeb Still, running back Kimani Vidal, offensive lineman Jordan McFadden and defensive lineman Justin Eboigbe.

The Steelers (2-0) listed quarterback Russell Wilson inactive for the third straight game. They also ruled the following players as inactive for Sunday's contest: guard Isaac Seumalo, tight end Mycole Pruitt, wide receiver Roman Wilson, cornerback Darius Rush and safety Terrell Edmunds.
