Personal life private: Chargers QB Justin Herbert skips second practice amid Madison Beer’s steamy European Tour

Attendance is not mandatory at this stage of the offseason program.But Justin Herbert’s absence for the second time in a row does stand out.The Athletic’s Daniel Popper reports that Justin Herbert did not show up for the Phase 2 voluntary practice.The 28-year-old Los Angeles quarterback was not present for the second straight Chargers practice open to media; Monday last week, and now on May 19.While on Justin Herbert’s personal sphere--- where is vehemently adored just like Travis Kelce is for showing his wholehearted support throughout his fiancée Taylor Swift’s Tours ---his girlfriend, Madison Beer, is currently in the middle of her European leg of her Locket Tour.The stops include Berlin on May 19, and Amsterdam on May 21, and Paris on May 22.A commenter forecasted, “I am guessing Herbert goes to the next two concerts in Amsterdam and Paris. Two great cities.And probably leaves his sweetie [Madison Beer] on the weekend, flies home from Paris and is back for the May 26-27 OTAs.”Is Justin Herbert worried the media probably would question more about his girlfriend Madison Beer’s tour and less about his recovering non-throwing hand?He is known to keep his personal life private. The media also focuses on his football career [on-field performance] and rehabilitation updates [recovery].But with the sheer coincidence of his voluntary practice and her concert tour… one has to wonder why this second absence? Especially when he is loudly supporting her for The Locket Tour…Even though Justin Herbert is not physically supporting Madison Beer, he keeps his support alive through comments…Madison Beer News shared a screenshot of his wholesome comment on Madison Beer’s Instagram post from her tour on X.He wrote, “She do be so cute when she performs.” If this is not love, then what is?A commenter wrote, “She is sad because he is not with her on tour anymore. Not because of comments on the internet.”Another said, “Bro doesn’t need to win a Super Bowl, he’s already won. Put a ring on that hand of hers, lock that down!”While fans are wholeheartedly rooting for their relationship, his absences from spring sessions may not be under so much scrutiny.Or could it be? Is he not happy with former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel’s addition as the new offensive coordinator for Los Angeles?There are certain new members in the offensive line as well… is this why he is missing practice?Anyhow, Chargers Wire’s Gavino Borquez reports that under the NFL’s collective bargaining agreement, spring sessions are optional.This may not affect star quarterback Justin Herbert’s regular-season performance.But wide receiver Ladd McConkey was also absent… if key players miss practice sessions, fans might begin to worry a little.Mandatory minicamps begin in June. If a player skips that, daily fines could run roughly $50,000 under the current NFL's collective bargaining agreement, according to Leon Aldridge of Football Analysis. Justin Herbert will most likely be there.
