Justin Herbert needs 180 passing yards to be fourth-fastest to 25,000

Justin Herbert enters Sunday's contest with an opportunity to reach a historic milestone by becoming the fourth-quickest player to accumulate 25,000 career passing yards. He sits just 180 yards away from crossing that threshold.

His head coach, Jim Harbaugh, views the signal-caller as someone destined to go down as the ultimate best in the sport's history, and this upcoming outing offers him another chance to stand alongside football's legends.
