The Los Angeles Chargers have officially cut ties with fan favorite pass-rusher, Joey Bosa. Bosa, who was once a premier edge rusher in the NFL, has struggled with injuries the last couple of seasons. He has missed a total of 23 games in the past three years and has only recorded 14 sacks during that time span. Still, one cannot take away what he was able to accomplish during his Chargers tenure.
Bosa was the Defensive Rookie of the Year for the 2016 campaign and was selected to five Pro Bowls. His 72 career sacks is good enough for second-best in Chargers franchise history only trailing Leslie O’Neil who had 105.5 sacks. Bosa also logged 17 forced fumbles, 343 combined tackles, and 87 tackles for a loss during his time with the Chargers. If Bosa can get healthy, he can still be a valuable pass-rusher on the correct team. The kicker is that he must remain consistently available.
