It looked really bad.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_3o2cyd19c\">The Chargers faced second-and-8 from their own 31-yard line with 7:45 remaining in the first half. Herbert dropped back and dumped a pass off to J.K. Dobbins for a 10-yard gain. After he released the ball, Shepherd was on the ground under him and grabbed Herbert&#8217;s leg then twisted it, taking the quarterback down. It certainly looked dirty and like it was done with intent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_lnz5zolgg\">Chargers offensive lineman Bradley Bozeman immediately dove in and hit Shepherd.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Dirty play by Nathan Shepherd.
